Does this actually work?

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

typical (middle half) 8k–54k

Games like Demigod

The middle of these games

≈ 8k–54k copies

from ~622 reviews

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

4 of your 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Eternal Return at ≈ 1.7M–2.8M copies. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here
About half the games that made it here had over 134 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 32 to 46k.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on MOBA (5 of 8) and Card Battler (2 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Trading Card Game + Turn-Based Tactics. The breakout hits carry PvP + Free to Play + PvE; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2017 to 2023, 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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
