Sands of Salzaar

VS

Roblox

Sands of Salzaar is a single-player sandbox RPG with strategy elements, released in 2020 by Han-Squirrel Studio. It gained some attention for its open-ended gameplay and mod support but did not become a mainstream hit. Interest has dwindled since release, and as a single-player game without persistent world multiplayer, it retains a small but devoted community. DAP is likely under 1,000.

Roblox is a massively popular sandbox platform, released in 2006 but continually updated and widely adopted by younger audiences globally. It consistently reports tens of millions of monthly active users, with peak daily actives usually around 5–10% of monthly users. Recent filings and reports indicate Roblox has over 60 million daily active users, but this covers global user logins across many devices and experiences. Adjusting conservatively for reporting and engagement variance, daily actives typically exceed 50 million worldwide, but simultaneous users generally peak in the hundreds of thousands to low millions. As a platform with persistent worlds, it fits the broader MMO definition.
