Overview
Megaquarium is a 2018 Casual game developed by Twice Circled and published by Twice Circled. On Steam it has gathered 3,702 player reviews, 95% of them positive, which counts as a overwhelmingly positive reception among indie titles in the Casual category. The game is available on linux, mac, windows, and launched at $25. The pairing of developer Twice Circled with publisher Twice Circled is one of the studio-publisher relationships indielist tracks, letting players find comparable games and letting developers and investors study how Casual projects reach the market. indielist's white-box model estimates its lifetime sales at roughly 144,000 to 337,000 units, with the full Boxleiter factor breakdown shown on this page rather than a single black-box figure.

indielist estimates lifetime unit sales for Megaquarium at roughly 144,000 to 337,000 copies, with a median around 241,000, derived from its 3,702 Steam reviews using a multi-factor Boxleiter model (version v1.0). That median maps to approximately $3.4M 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
indielist positions Megaquarium within the Casual segment so players can surface comparable titles by shared tags and genre rather than by storefront promotion. On the developer side, Twice Circled's other releases and Twice Circled's wider catalog are one click away, letting developers benchmark where Megaquarium 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 Megaquarium page serves three audiences at once: players hunting their next Casual 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.
