$272–$732 after Steam's cut $495–$1k before the cut
from 4 reviews (4 user reviews)
Thin evidence: 4 reviews. That range swings on one or two people, so read it as a hint, not a measurement.

A labeled estimate from the public review count (adjusted for release year), not exact sales. Owner data cross-checked with SteamSpy.

Does this actually work?

3 of your 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: The Gardens Between at ≈ 84k–136k copies, ≈ $461k–$1.2M after Steam's cut.

What it took to get here
About half the games that made it here had over 47 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 18 to 463.

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).
