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.

You won't need a haircut where you're going... mostly because you're bald. Inspired by Earthbound, Undertale, and other alt-RPGs, Nepenthe is a hand-drawn game made of dad-jokes and existential dread. Also cookies. Lots of cookies.From the Steam store page
