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

- Steam appid: 3324650
- Developer: GIX
- Released: 2025 · Genre: Action · List price: $8.99
- Deal grade: C (A = dormant with >=$5k/mo opportunity, D = low signal)
- Est. net residual revenue: $3.2k to $4.8k per month (mid $4.0k)
- Opportunity score: $4.0k/month at x1.00 dormancy multiplier

- Review sentiment: 89% positive across 461 reviews (403 from Steam purchases)
- Review velocity: 53.2 reviews/month (6-month average)

## Why it's flagged

- Last build shipped 1 months ago

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

| Stage | USD/month |
|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $7.3k |
| After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $6.3k |
| After refunds (-9.5% median) | $5.7k |

## Monthly review counts, oldest to newest (8 months)

## Missed seasonal-sale revenue (modeled)

Skipped 1 Steam seasonal sale window(s) in the last 8 months. Running a -50% discount in those windows is modeled at +$1.1k net in total, assuming a unit uplift of x3.0 (industry-typical for old catalog titles). Same ±30-50% error range applies.

## Markets by review language

- schinese: 64%
- brazilian: 0% (game NOT localized in this language)

## 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.
