Game localization cost calculator

Having received many questions concerning a simple method of calculating game localization cost I decided to create a small application just for that.

The idea is simple:

  1. You prepare an XLS/XLSX file.
  2. Open it in Hiero (that will be name of the calculator).
  3. Select columns containing strings to be localized.
  4. Input your rate per word.
  5. Hit Count button.
  6. Display total number of words and overall price.
  7. That’s it.

Beta version of the application is here.
