Planet X3 (DOS)

Short description

Planet X3 is a new retro real-time strategy game for DOS. You are up against the Protoids. You need to mine resources, build infrastructure and build offensive units to defeat them. All while protecting your bases. Relive the VGA, AdLib and keyboard controls experience of early 90s PC gaming.

Review count and SteamSpy's owner range agree well enough to narrow the estimate down to this band. Multiplied by the $9.99 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.
