# 捣蛋蛙（Croak Squad）

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

- Steam appid: 3675400
- Developer: BonkersLab
- Released: 2026 · Genre: Action · List price: $3.99
- Deal grade: B (A = dormant with >=$5k/mo opportunity, D = low signal)
- Est. net residual revenue: $620 to $930 per month (mid $775)
- Opportunity score: $1.2k/month at x1.50 dormancy multiplier
- Est. lifetime owners: 4.9k · Est. lifetime net revenue: $6.6k
- Review sentiment: 32% positive across 167 reviews (153 from Steam purchases)
- Review velocity: 23.2 reviews/month (6-month average)

## Why it's flagged

- Developer active, last post 1 months ago
- Last build shipped 1 months ago
- No Steam discount in 4.0 years (deepest tracked: -0%)

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

| Stage | USD/month |
|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $1.4k |
| After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $1.2k |
| After refunds (-9.5% median) | $1.1k |
| Net to developer (after Steam 30%) | $775 |

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

6, 3, 55, 21, 14, 12, 34

## Missed seasonal-sale revenue (modeled)

Skipped 4 Steam seasonal sale window(s) in the last 7 months. Running a -50% discount in those windows is modeled at +$1.8k net in total, assuming a unit uplift of x3.0 (industry-typical for old catalog titles). Same ±30-50% error range applies.

## Estimated acquisition range

$18.6k to $37.2k (2-4x the trailing net annuity of $9.3k/year). Same error range applies.

## Markets by review language

- english: 3%
- russian: 1%
- schinese: 95%

## 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.
