The monetization strategy for puzzle and archaeology games on Steam has been criticized for unethical practices, including the rapid release of low-quality asset flips that exploit other developers' work. These games often feature poor localization and are accompanied by fake reviews, indicating a pattern of cash grabs rather than genuine offerings.
- “Puzzle games/archaeology games have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab.”
- “They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear at almost exactly the same time, very shortly after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams.”
