The middle of these games

≈ 1k–14k copies

≈ $958–$167k after Steam's cut

from ~120 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: Chants of Sennaar at ≈ 844k–1.4M copies, ≈ $4.6M–$12.5M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here

The games that made it here had under 2k reviews in their first month.

Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Puzzle (7 of 8) and Word Game (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Puzzle + Point & Click, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Adventure + Colorful + Point & Click; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: None of the games you compared shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2023. 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 that falls with release age, from about 31 for the most recent game here to about 38 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
