| After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $1.1k |
| After refunds (-9.5% median) | $1.0k |

## Monthly review counts, oldest to newest (7 months)

45, 28, 7, 11, 10, 5, 4

## Missed seasonal-sale revenue (modeled)

Skipped 1 Steam seasonal sale window(s) in the last 7 months. Running a -50% discount in those windows is modeled at +$1.5k 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

- french: 7%
- german: 10%
- english: 57%
- koreana: 2%
- russian: 13%
- spanish: 4%
- schinese: 3%
- brazilian: 3% (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.
