Does this actually work?

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

Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 1k–2k
best case 15k (Fallback)

The middle of these games

≈ 1k–2k copies

≈ $2k–$117k after Steam's cut

from ~41 reviews

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

None of your 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Fallback at ≈ 12k–19k copies, ≈ $32k–$85k after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here
The games that made it here had under 40 reviews in their first month.
Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Action Roguelike (8 of 8) and Hack and Slash (8 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Hack and Slash + Action Roguelike, priced around $12. The breakout hits carry Rogue-lite + Singleplayer + Atmospheric; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2017 to 2025, and 1 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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
