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

| Stage | USD/month |
|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $761 |
| After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $662 |
| After refunds (-9.5% median) | $599 |
| Net to developer (after Steam 30%) | $419 |

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

13, 3, 3, 3, 2, 2, 3, 3, 2, 1, 3, 0, 3

## Estimated acquisition range

$10.1k to $20.1k (2-4x the trailing net annuity of $5.0k/year). Same error range applies.

## Markets by review language

- schinese: 5%
- french: 2% (game NOT localized in this language)
- english: 76%
- koreana: 2% (game NOT localized in this language)
- russian: 7% (game NOT localized in this language)
- japanese: 7%

Localization gap: 12% of measured reviews are written in languages the game does not support (top: russian). Localizing is likely immediate market expansion.

## 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.
