The middle of these games

≈ $986–$7k after Steam's cut

from ~22 reviews

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

1 of your 8 similar games is a hit.

Best case: Gnomes at ≈ 45k–73k copies, ≈ $123k–$331k after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here

About half the games that made it here had over 21 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 6 to 649.

Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Farming Sim (7 of 8) and Rogue-lite (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Tower Defense + Turn-Based, priced around $10. The breakout hits carry Turn-Based + Dwarf + Tower Defense; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: 5 of your 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. You'd be launching into a busy stretch.

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).
