The Exploration lane

A niche genre: modest ceilings, most sell around 22k copies, so plan for a small audience.

A typical game
≈ 22k copies
≈ $80k after Steam's cut
from ~663 reviews
Best case
≈ 235k copies
Breakout 13 · ≈ $905k after Steam's cut
from 7k reviews
A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

6 of your 7 games sit in the typical range; 1 is a breakout hit 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 FMV + Interactive Fiction, priced around $10.
  • The breakout hits carry FMV + Choose Your Own Adventure + Immersive Sim; 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.
