indielist estimates lifetime unit sales for This War of Mine at roughly 5.3 million to 12.4 million copies, with a median around 8.9 million, derived from its 88,714 Steam reviews using a multi-factor Boxleiter model (version v1.0). That median maps to approximately $101.3M 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.

Ecosystem
Players looking for games like This War of Mine can compare it on indielist against semantically similar Adventure titles such as Frostpunk, Don't Starve Together, Hades, Celeste, ranked by shared tags and genre rather than by ad spend. On the developer side, 11 bit studios's other releases and 11 bit studios's wider catalog are one click away, letting developers benchmark where This War of Mine 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 This War of Mine page serves three audiences at once: players hunting their next Adventure 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.
