Escape from Tarkov

Shadow Kings is a mobile fantasy strategy game developed by Goodgame Studios and released in 2014. Although it once had an active player base, the game is nearly a decade old and shows no signs of ongoing major updates or community engagement. Most older mobile strategy titles experience significant decline after 5+ years unless heavily promoted, so a conservative estimate would be in the low hundreds for daily active players.

Escape from Tarkov is a hardcore tactical shooter with survival and RPG elements, released in 2017 by Battlestate Games. Despite being several years old and not yet fully released as a 1.0 version, it retains a strong, dedicated player base due to its unique, high-stakes gameplay loop and regular content wipes. However, its niche appeal and high difficulty prevent mass market adoption, leading to a moderately sized but stable daily active player count.
