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

- Publisher: OVERLAP GAMES
- Released: 2026 · Genre: Adventure · List price: $17.99
- Deal grade: C (A = dormant with >=$5k/mo opportunity, D = low signal)
- Est. net residual revenue: $6.6k to $10.0k per month (mid $8.3k)

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

|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $15.1k |

## Monthly review counts, oldest to newest (1 months)

55

## Missed seasonal-sale revenue (modeled)

Skipped 1 Steam seasonal sale window(s) in the last 1 months. Running a -50% discount in those windows is modeled at +$4.1k 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: 95%
- english: 2%
- japanese: 4%

## 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.
