- Steam appid: 1955030
- Developer: Archotech
- Released: 2024 · Genre: Action · List price: $9.99
- Deal grade: B (A = dormant with >=$5k/mo opportunity, D = low signal)
- Est. net residual revenue: $127 to $190 per month (mid $158)
- Opportunity score: $340/month at x2.15 dormancy multiplier

## Where a gross dollar goes (monthly, at current velocity)

|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $287 |

## Monthly review counts, oldest to newest (19 months)

## Missed seasonal-sale revenue (modeled)

Skipped 9 Steam seasonal sale window(s) in the last 19 months. Running a -50% discount in those windows is modeled at +$5.7k net in total, assuming a unit uplift of x3.0 (industry-typical for old catalog titles). Same ±30-50% error range applies.

## Estimated acquisition range

$3.8k to $7.6k (2-4x the trailing net annuity of $1.9k/year). Same error range applies.

## Markets by review language

- koreana: 1%
- russian: 71%
- spanish: 2%
- schinese: 11%
- brazilian: 1%
- french: 2%
- english: 14%

## Methodology

Units are estimated from Steam-purchase reviews times a release-cohort multiplier (Boxleiter method, 20-75x by year). Revenue uses an effective price (lifetime discounts and regional pricing) and nets out VAT (~13%), refunds (~9.5%) and Steam's 30% cut: roughly 55% of gross reaches the developer.
