The Castle Doctrine is an indie strategy/puzzle game released in 2014 by Jason Rohrer. It had a niche appeal and limited multiplayer features, with activity declining sharply over years. Due to game age, indie scope, and lack of recent major updates or promotion, the active player base is now extremely low—likely fewer than a dozen daily players.
Estimated Daily Players
We estimate that Pokémon Go has currently around 850k players daily.
Pokémon Go, launched in 2016 by Niantic Labs and The Pokémon Company, remains a leading mobile AR game. While its initial peak was much higher, it consistently maintains high active daily users due to ongoing events, strong brand recognition, and global reach. High engagement is reinforced through regular content updates and seasonal events, although numbers have declined from their 2016–2017 peak.
