The Mana World is an open-source, community-driven MMORPG first released in 2004. Given its age, lack of a major publisher or recent major updates, and its niche free software nature, its player base is very small. Typical estimates for similar older open-source projects suggest daily active players in the low hundreds or less. It meets MMO criteria as it has a persistent world and supports large-scale multiplayer interaction.
Estimated Daily Players
~15 thousand
We estimate that The Sandbox has currently around 15k players daily.
The Sandbox is a blockchain-based virtual world and sandbox game that peaked in popularity during the NFT/metaverse boom around 2021-2022. Activity has dropped significantly since then, partly due to a wider decline in interest in crypto gaming and metaverse titles. It is still supported by Animoca Brands and has a steady, niche user base, but the current daily player count is relatively low compared to its peak. It does offer massively multiplayer elements but most spaces are instanced or event-driven, not a single persistent shared world.
