# Board Game Society > ResidualPlay case file: an overlooked Steam game still earning residual revenue. Estimates carry a ±30-50% error range per title. **Measured on 2026-09-01 16:14 UTC.** The whole Steam catalog is re-measured daily; a game that just launched can move a lot between passes. - Steam appid: 3037040 - Developer: Jetebra Games - Released: 2026 · Genre: Casual · List price: $14.99 - Deal grade: B (A = dormant with >=$5k/mo opportunity, D = low signal) - Est. net residual revenue: $2.2k to $3.4k per month (mid $2.8k) - Opportunity score: $3.6k/month at x1.30 dormancy multiplier - Est. lifetime owners: 1.0k · Est. lifetime net revenue: $5.0k - Review sentiment: 71% positive across 28 reviews (25 from Steam purchases) - Review velocity: 22.3 reviews/month (6-month average) ## Why it's flagged - Developer active, last post 0 months ago - Last build shipped 0 months ago - Store page localized in only 1 language(s) - Last discounted 0 months ago, 1 sales in the last 12 months ## Where a gross dollar goes (monthly, at current velocity) | Stage | USD/month | |---|---| | Gross storefront sales | $5.1k | | After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $4.4k | | After refunds (-9.5% median) | $4.0k | | Net to developer (after Steam 30%) | $2.8k | ## Estimated acquisition range $67.2k to $134.4k (2-4x the trailing net annuity of $33.6k/year). Same error range applies. ## Markets by review language - english: 100% (game NOT localized in this language) Localization gap: 100% of measured reviews are written in languages the game does not support (top: english). Localizing is likely immediate market expansion. ## Methodology Units are estimated from Steam-purchase reviews times a release-cohort multiplier, 40-75x by year. Cohorts from 2020 on are calibrated against 182 sales milestones announced by developers; older ones follow the published Boxleiter tables. 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.
