Does this actually work?

We left Cobots out and predicted the genre from its 3 similar games. Every figure here, including Cobots's, is estimated from Steam reviews, not self-reported sales.

Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 1k–5k
best case 7k (Fate of Kai)
Games like Cobots

The middle of these games

≈ 1k–5k copies

≈ $4k–$12k after Steam's cut

from ~52 reviews

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

None of your 3 similar games are hits.

From a small set, so take it as a sketch.

Best case: Fate of Kai at ≈ 6k–9k copies, ≈ $11k–$29k after Steam's cut.

What it took to get here
About half the games that made it here had over 41 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 13 to 88.
Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Puzzle (3 of 3) and First-Person (2 of 3).
The winners
Winners here lead with Puzzle + Visual Novel, priced around $7.
The era
Only 1 of your 3 similar games shipped in the last two years. That says more about your picks than about the market, so add newer similar games to read the timing.
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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
