Every build we send comes with its manual.
This is where Steam's reviewers learn our products the way we built them to be used: one step to a page, what you should see at each step, and real help when something doesn't go to plan.

Why we made this
A store page and a few hundred characters can't show you how a product really runs. Real product testers get a full manual: the setup, every step, and what each step should give them. We think Steam's reviewers deserve the same, so every build we hand in now comes with one.
Getting the details right is an obsession of ours. This site is that same care, handed to you. We hope it makes your review quicker and more pleasant, and we hope handing in a build this way becomes a little more common.
