Top tags, description length, language coverage and price band from the top quartile of the games most similar to yours, one click to copy a tag into the draft.

Steam has no write API, so the editor ends in copy-to-clipboard BBCode. You paste it into Steamworks yourself.

[ LAUNCH ]

One translation budget, one week to send keys.

Pick languages from where reviews and wishlists already come from. Send keys to curators who covered games like yours. Bring in the Steamworks numbers only you can see.

[ AFTER LAUNCH ]

Half your reviews are in a language you can't read.

It didn't take off and you don't know if it was the page or the game. It's ticking along and you're guessing when to discount. It's selling well and you're guessing what to build next. The reviews, playtime and refunds answer that, in every language.

Reviews

Find the reviews that point at the page

Search review text and filter by language, verdict, refunds, Steam Deck and playtime. Low-playtime negatives point at the page or the tutorial, long-playtime ones point at the roadmap.

Bounce early, or stick around

Reviewer playtime bucketed from under an hour to twenty and up. A fat under-1h bucket means the page or tutorial, a fat 20h+ bucket means players want more.
