The middle of these games

≈ 62k–175k copies

≈ $240k–$488k after Steam's cut

from ~3k reviews

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

All 8 of your similar games are hits.

Best case: Cruelty Squad at ≈ 616k–1.0M copies, ≈ $3.4M–$9.1M 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 2k reviews in their first month; the spread ran 18 to 4k.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Psychological Horror (8 of 8) and Surreal (7 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Psychological Horror, priced around $5. The breakout hits carry Singleplayer; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2015 to 2025, and 2 of your 8 shipped in the last two years.
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 61 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
