- Deal grade: B (A = dormant with >=$5k/mo opportunity, D = low signal)

## Why it's flagged

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

| Stage | USD/month |
|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $2.0k |

## Monthly review counts, oldest to newest (13 months)

94, 48, 19, 23, 20, 19, 12, 6, 12, 10, 5, 7, 13

## Missed seasonal-sale revenue (modeled)

Skipped 3 Steam seasonal sale window(s) in the last 13 months. Running a -50% discount in those windows is modeled at +$7.9k 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

$26.6k to $53.3k (2-4x the trailing net annuity of $13.3k/year). Same error range applies.

## Markets by review language

- english: 43%
- koreana: 0%
- spanish: 2%
- japanese: 1%
- brazilian: 2%
- french: 5%
- russian: 8%
- schinese: 4%
- german: 34%

## 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.
