CaveFiction

Short description

"Cave Fiction" is a self-developed "game" that is actually a monstrous creation born from the author's sad, arrogant, and foolish consciousness. Its name is derived from a classic metaphor in Plato's philosophy, making it a manic modern story within a classical narrative framework.

Review count and SteamSpy's owner range agree well enough to narrow the estimate down to this band. Multiplied by the $5.99 launch price — there is not enough price history for this game to weight the copies by what they actually sold for. Before Steam's cut, VAT and refunds. How these numbers are calculated.
