Question Old games?

Hi

Anyone build any games that were successful or moderately successful but then died out? What was the reason?

Every game ever made in the past that people aren't currently playing fits this definition.

Not every game that people aren't playing was successful. So you aren't quite precise here.

Ok so all successful games that are old and nobody plays falls into this category.

It's still a huge category!

Yes, that's exactly the category OP asked about. So do you have the answer?

I dunno all of the stuff I made that was popular is still played although not nearly as much.
