# Can I Come In?

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

**Measured on 2026-08-30 07:17 UTC.** The whole Steam catalog is re-measured daily; a game that just launched can move a lot between passes.

- Last build shipped 0 months ago
- Store page localized in only 2 language(s)

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

| Stage | USD/month |
|---|---|
| Gross storefront sales | $2.3k |
| After VAT / sales tax (-13% blended) | $2.0k |
| After refunds (-9.5% median) | $1.8k |
| Net to developer (after Steam 30%) | $1.3k |

## Estimated acquisition range

$30.5k to $61.0k (2-4x the trailing net annuity of $15.2k/year). Same error range applies.

## Markets by review language

- english: 55%
- koreana: 3% (game NOT localized in this language)
- russian: 21%
- japanese: 3% (game NOT localized in this language)
- schinese: 9% (game NOT localized in this language)
- french: 3% (game NOT localized in this language)
- german: 6% (game NOT localized in this language)

Localization gap: 24% of measured reviews are written in languages the game does not support (top: schinese). Localizing is likely immediate market expansion.

## Methodology

Units are estimated from Steam-purchase reviews times a release-cohort multiplier, 40-75x by year. Cohorts from 2020 on are calibrated against 182 sales milestones announced by developers; older ones follow the published Boxleiter tables. 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.
