Does this actually work?

We left Biped out and predicted the genre from its 8 similar games. Every figure here, including Biped's, is estimated from Steam reviews, not self-reported sales.

Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 18k–56k
best case 1.4M (Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader)
The Adventure lane

A niche genre: modest ceilings, most sell around 35k copies, so plan for a small audience.

A typical game
≈ 35k copies
≈ $135k after Steam's cut

Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader · ≈ $27.9M after Steam's cut

A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

6 of your 8 games sit in the typical range; 2 are breakout hits far above it.

Copies and revenue are rough lifetime estimates from the review count; typical figures are medians per column, so they can come from different games.

The lane you'd be entering
  • Winners here lead with Controller + Comedy, priced around $35.
  • The breakout hits carry Controller + Comedy + Creature Collector; a typical game here doesn't.
  • None of the games you compared shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2023. That says more about your picks than about the market, so add newer similar games to read the timing.
  • A typical game here lands in Silver ($10k–$250k before Steam's cut, est.); the best case reaches Diamond ($1M+). Tiers: Chris Zukowski's benchmark tiers.
