Methodology & limitations

Sales estimates use an additive Boxleiter-derived heuristic against public Steam review counts. They are not authoritative sales data, and the fixed display range is not a statistically validated confidence interval. Actual results may fall outside it, especially for deeply discounted or bundle-heavy titles. Algorithm version v1.0. Read the exact method and validation status.

indielist estimates lifetime unit sales for Fieldrunners at roughly 6,000 to 13,000 copies, with a median around 9,000, derived from its 185 Steam reviews using a multi-factor Boxleiter method (version v1.0). That median maps to approximately $26K in net revenue after Steam's 30% cut, regional pricing, and refunds. Unlike black-box trackers, the full calculation is shown on this page: a base review-to-sales multiplier is adjusted for release year, launch price, review sentiment, studio size, and genre, and every adjustment is listed so developers, publishers, and investors can audit exactly how the figure was reached. The range itself reflects genuine uncertainty — review-to-sales ratios vary widely between games — so indielist publishes a low, median, and high band rather than a false-precision single number, and treats free-to-play, heavily discounted, and bundle-distributed titles as having wider error margins still.

Players looking for games like Fieldrunners can compare it on indielist against semantically similar Strategy titles such as Plants vs. Zombies GOTY Edition, Backpack Battles, Cubic Cosmos, Geneforge 1, ranked by shared tags and genre rather than by ad spend. On the developer side, Subatomic Studios LLC's other releases and Subatomic Studios LLC's wider catalog are one click away, letting developers benchmark where Fieldrunners sits among a studio's body of work and how its publisher's portfolio performs. Because indielist maps studios, publishers, games, and funding into one connected graph, the same Fieldrunners page serves three audiences at once: players hunting their next Strategy game, developers studying how comparable projects were positioned and what they sold, and investors tracing which teams and labels are active in the space. A machine-readable markdown mirror of this page is published at the same path with a .md suffix for AI assistants, and its review, price, and sales-estimate figures are refreshed on a schedule rather than frozen at launch.

Matched from shared Steam tags and primary genre. Review count breaks ties; it is not a personal recommendation score.
