# The Losers Team

> ResidualPlay case file: an overlooked Steam game still earning residual revenue. Estimates carry a ±30-50% error range per title.

- Steam appid: 3151250
- Developer: Milton Game
- Released: 2025 · Genre: Casual · List price: $3.00
- Deal grade: C (A = dormant with >=$5k/mo opportunity, D = low signal)
- Est. net residual revenue: $47 to $70 per month (mid $59)
- Opportunity score: $109/month at x1.85 dormancy multiplier
- Est. lifetime owners: 9.2k · Est. lifetime net revenue: $9.3k
- Review sentiment: 83% positive across 322 reviews (289 from Steam purchases)
- Review velocity: 2.3 reviews/month (6-month average)

## Why it's flagged

- Developer silent for 18 months
- Studio quiet across its whole catalog
- Last build shipped 18 months ago
- Store page localized in only 4 language(s)
- No Steam discount in 1.0 years (deepest tracked: -70%)
- Proven demand elasticity: x13.5 review velocity during past deep sales

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

| Stage | USD/month |
|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $107 |
| After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $93 |
| After refunds (-9.5% median) | $84 |
| Net to developer (after Steam 30%) | $59 |

## Monthly review counts, oldest to newest (17 months)

97, 114, 9, 8, 12, 5, 23, 3, 4, 21, 5, 2, 1, 2, 2, 4, 3

## Missed seasonal-sale revenue (modeled)

Skipped 8 Steam seasonal sale window(s) in the last 17 months. Running a -50% discount in those windows is modeled at +$8.4k net in total, assuming a unit uplift of x13.5 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.
