The Casual lane

A niche genre: modest ceilings, most sell around 821 copies, so plan for a small audience.

A typical game
≈ 821 copies
≈ $2k after Steam's cut
from ~25 reviews
Best case
≈ 754k copies
Tribes of Midgard · ≈ $5.8M after Steam's cut
from 23k reviews

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 Open World Survival Craft + Online Co-Op, priced around $20.
  • None of the games you compared shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2024. 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 Bronze (under $10k before Steam's cut, est.); the best case reaches Diamond ($1M+). Tiers: Chris Zukowski's benchmark tiers.
