The Adventure lane

A niche genre: modest ceilings, most sell around 28k copies, so plan for a small audience.

A typical game
≈ 28k copies
≈ $293k after Steam's cut

Best case
≈ 860k copies
Garfield Kart · ≈ $1.7M after Steam's cut

A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

7 of your 8 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 Cult Classic + Combat Racing, priced around $5.
  • The breakout hits carry Cult Classic + Combat Racing + Competitive; a typical game here doesn't.
  • The games you compared span 2014 to 2024, a lane with a long track record.
  • A typical game here lands in Gold ($250k–$1M before Steam's cut, est.); the best case reaches Diamond ($1M+). Tiers: Chris Zukowski's benchmark tiers.
