Does this actually work?

We left SynthVR out and predicted the genre from its 8 similar games. Every figure here, including SynthVR's, is estimated from Steam reviews, not self-reported sales.

Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 7k–25k
best case 4.6M (Soundpad)
The Audio Production lane

A niche genre: modest ceilings, most sell around 13k copies, so plan for a small audience.

A typical game
≈ 13k copies
≈ $124k after Steam's cut
from ~351 reviews
Best case
≈ 4.6M copies
Soundpad · ≈ $8.9M 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 Utilities + Audio Production, priced around $5.
  • The breakout hits carry NSFW + Mature + Cold War; a typical game here doesn't.
  • The games you compared span 2014 to 2022, a lane with a long track record.
  • A typical game here lands in Silver ($10k–$250k before Steam's cut, est.); the best case reaches Diamond ($1M+). Tiers: Chris Zukowski's benchmark tiers.
