≈ 98–570 copies

≈ $82–$1k after Steam's cut

from ~8 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: Star Survivor at ≈ 14k–23k copies, ≈ $19k–$52k 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 494 reviews in their first month.

The winners
Winners here lead with Survival + Action Roguelike, priced around $5. The breakout hits carry Survival + Action Roguelike + Physics; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2017 to 2025, and 2 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).
