- Deal grade: C (A = dormant with >=$5k/mo opportunity, D = low signal)
- Est. net residual revenue: $16 to $25 per month (mid $21)
- Opportunity score: $43/month at x2.10 dormancy multiplier
- Est. lifetime owners: 992 · Est. lifetime net revenue: $245

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

| Stage | USD/month |
|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $37 |
| After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $32 |
| After refunds (-9.5% median) | $29 |
| Net to developer (after Steam 30%) | $21 |

## Monthly review counts, oldest to newest (15 months)

2, 1, 4, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 3, 12, 4, 2, 1, 0, 1

## Missed seasonal-sale revenue (modeled)

Skipped 3 Steam seasonal sale window(s) in the last 15 months. Running a -50% discount in those windows is modeled at +$2 net in total, assuming a unit uplift of x2.1 taken from this game's own sale history. Same ±30-50% error range applies.

## 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.
