Your set: Your set clusters on Simulation (7 of 8) and 4X (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Grand Strategy + Historical, priced around $70. The breakout hits carry Diplomacy + Military + Economy; a typical game here doesn't.

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).
