The middle of these games

≈ 193k–268k copies

≈ $2.1M–$3.9M after Steam's cut

from ~6k 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: Darkest Dungeon® at ≈ 6.7M–10.9M copies, ≈ $46.2M–$124.2M 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 3k reviews in their first month; the spread ran 1k to 4k.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Dungeon Crawler (5 of 8) and Turn-Based Combat (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Rogue-like, priced around $22. The breakout hits carry Rogue-like + Lovecraftian + Difficult; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2016 to 2022, and none of them 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 52 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
