[ 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.

is a page problem, not a game problem.

Research what is winning among games like yours, then grade and fix your store page with a live-preview editor seeded from your closest competitors. Match languages to where reviews and wishlists come from, find curators who cover games like yours, and read every review in every language, with playtime and refunds, once you launch.
That is where the after-launch side earns its keep. If it did not take off, the low-playtime negatives and refund rate tell you whether it was the page or the game. If it is ticking along, reviews and playtime tell you when to discount. If it is selling well, the long-playtime reviews tell you what to build next.
Any game on Steam, by app id or store URL, yours or a competitor’s. Games outside of Steam are not supported.
We publish an estimated owners range using a Boxleiter-style method, documented at /docs/estimates, never a single number. We do not estimate revenue, and free-to-play games get no estimate at all.
A crawler refreshes reviews and store pages automatically, more often for active games. Each review shows when it was last fetched.
Yes. LevelMetrics runs an MCP server with read-only tools for game overview, review search, language breakdown, localisation opportunities, similar games, trending and rising, and curators, using OAuth or an API key.
No. Steam does not offer a write API, so the store page editor ends in copy-to-clipboard BBCode that you paste into Steamworks yourself.
