The Exploration lane

A niche genre: modest ceilings, most sell around 41k copies, so plan for a small audience.

A typical game
≈ 41k copies
≈ $175k after Steam's cut

Best case
≈ 1.4M copies

A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

2 of your 8 games sit in the typical range; 4 are breakout hits far above it, and 2 are too small to compare.

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 Relaxing + Atmospheric, priced around $20.
  • The breakout hits carry Atmospheric + Relaxing + Singleplayer; a typical game here doesn't.
  • The games you compared span 2014 to 2025, a lane with a long track record.
  • A typical game here lands in Gold ($250k–$1M before Steam's cut, est.); the best case reaches Diamond ($1M+). Tiers: Chris Zukowski's benchmark tiers.
