TECUMSEH AND SHAWNEE PACK
This content pack adds the leader Tecumseh and the Shawnee civilization to Civilization VII!
Tecumseh specializes in diplomacy and defense. His unique ability, Nicaakiyakoolaakwe, increases food, production, and combat strength based on the number of allied city-states.
Shawnee is an Exploration Age civilization that excels at utilizing natural resources. Their unique ability, Nepekifaki, gives more food for settlements built on river tiles but slightly reduces food for any cities not built on rivers. Its associated wonder is the Serpent Mound.

View on SteamOfficial WebsiteTop Sellers Ranking
What this shows: Steam's top sellers ranking is updated hourly based on revenue, not unit sales. A game consistently in the top 20 demonstrates strong commercial performance. Look for sustained periods in high positions (green zones) which indicate stable revenue generation. Sharp drops often correlate with the end of promotional sales or the launch of competing titles. Investors should note that top 10 placements typically have significant impact on quarterly earnings, especially for mid-sized publishers.
Reviews History
What this shows: Review accumulation over time reveals player sentiment and community reception. The line tracks total review count growth—steep increases indicate viral moments or major updates. The colored bars show daily review breakdown: green (positive) vs. red (negative). Watch for sudden red spikes, which often signal controversies, technical issues, or unpopular changes. Sustained green dominance (70%+ positive) correlates with long-term sales success. For investors, review velocity matters—games maintaining 1,000+ reviews per month show healthy engagement. Compare review ratios to Metacritic scores to spot discrepancies between critic and player reception.
Player Statistics
What this shows: Concurrent player counts (CCU) and daily active users reveal real-time engagement with the game. High sustained CCU indicates healthy player retention, which drives ongoing revenue through in-game purchases, DLC, and premium subscriptions. Look for the 24-hour peak—multiplayer games should show clear patterns (evening spikes in major regions). Single-player titles typically see declining CCU over weeks unless major updates or discounts occur. For investors, sustained player counts months after launch signal successful live-service implementation. Sharp drops may indicate server issues, negative publicity, or loss of interest. This data complements revenue estimates—games with 100,000+ daily players usually generate significant recurring income.

Search Interest
What this shows: Google Search trends reveal public awareness and interest over time, independent of Steam metrics. Spikes indicate moments when the game captured mainstream attention—typically around announcements, trailers, beta releases, or launch day. Compare search interest to follower growth to gauge whether marketing efforts are reaching beyond the existing gaming community. For unreleased games, rising search volume suggests effective promotional campaigns. For released games, sustained search interest months after launch indicates lasting cultural relevance. Investors should note: viral search moments don't always translate to sales, but they do indicate brand awareness that could drive future DLC or sequel success. This data helps answer "Is anyone talking about this game outside of core gaming circles?"
