≈ $452–$9k after Steam's cut

from ~14 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: Socialism Simulator at ≈ 7k–11k copies, ≈ $8k–$21k after Steam's cut.

What it took to get here
The games that made it here had under 109 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 Political Sim (7 of 8) and Diplomacy (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Turn-Based Tactics + Political Sim, priced around $4.
The era
None of the games you compared shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2023. That says more about your picks than about the market, so add newer similar games to read the timing.
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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
