≈ 879–4k copies

≈ $3k–$39k after Steam's cut

from ~59 reviews

Only the top fifth of 2019’s Steam releases earned about $34k gross, so plan for that or less.

None of your 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Skeletal Avenger at ≈ 6k–10k copies, ≈ $30k–$80k after Steam's cut.

What it took to get here
About half the games that made it here had over 18 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 8 to 93.

How these numbers were worked out

A hit here: 1,000+ reviews, roughly $150k+ before Steam's cut (a standard indie benchmark).

Copies come from each game's reviews times a sales-per-review rate that falls with release age, from about 31 for the most recent game here to about 61 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
