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.
Sales estimates for The Complex: Found Footage are not yet available because its Steam review count is still being collected. indielist publishes a fully transparent, white-box Boxleiter-derived method rather than a single black-box number, so every estimate can be inspected factor by factor once review data lands.
