I think this just goes to show much difference some advertisement (in iPhone's case, being visible in the App Store) can make.
But obviously it's not that simple, there's not a large amount of decent gameplay on Graal to advertise, which is more important given the much stronger competition, nor is there an appealing subscription policy potential players would see as a good deal.
Expanding on the much stronger competition on the PC platform compared to iPhone, there is a market for retro style gaming Graal isn't properly tapping into.
Taking a look at Facebook, it seems as if most players have created an alternate account to play it, perhaps because they're too embarrassed to be seen as a player of it by their friends?
Now imagine if there was a server of such an improved standard, that most players might not be so embarrassed to be spotted playing it?
There's a potential advertising tool at no extra financial expense.
I personally hope that in the event of PC Classic somehow making significant income, some of that could be re-invested towards advertisement via Youtube, something I'm already using to display new content and features.

I agree that Snk is doing a terrific job on iEra, however PC Era has been through years of much worse external circumstances inflicted upon all of PC Graal. Even if it had an excellent staff team, there's only so much they'd realistically be able to accomplish while PC Graal itself is in its current state.
