Estimated lifetime sales and revenue

	Low	Medium	High
Copies sold	1,080	2,052	2,970
Net revenue (USD)	$4,503	$8,556	$12,384

Steam doesn't publish sales. These estimates multiply the number of reviews by a factor that depends on the release year (the Boxleiter method). Net revenue is what's left of list price × sales after refunds, regional pricing, discounts, sales tax and Steam's 30% cut, before any publisher's share. Treat them as a ballpark for comparing games, not as reported figures.

Knotwords is a minimal and elegant logic puzzle — with words. Arrange each section so every word across and down is valid. It may look difficult at first, but you'll be surprised at how quickly you pick it up!
