Rust is a popular multiplayer survival game released in 2018 by Facepunch Studios. Despite its age, it continues to maintain a strong player base due to frequent updates, viral streaming presence, and a devoted community. SteamCharts and third-party tracking consistently show around 80,000-90,000 daily active users on PC, with some console presence as well. The game thrives on large, persistent servers, but individual servers typically support 100-300 players, not the thousands seen in true MMOs.

Estimated Daily Players

~50

We estimate that Multi-Users in Middle-earth has currently around 50 players daily.

"Multi-Users in Middle-earth" (MUME) is a classic text-based MUD inspired by Tolkien's works, launched in 1992. As an aging, niche online RPG, it retains a small but extremely dedicated playerbase, consistent with many legacy MUDs. Community activity is minimal by modern standards, with perhaps a few dozen players online at peak times. Its persistent world and multi-user design do meet the MMO criteria.
