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.

About half the games that made it here had over 73 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 20 to 262.

Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Card Battler (6 of 8) and Turn-Based Strategy (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Turn-Based Strategy + Card Battler, priced around $25. The breakout hits carry Choices Matter + Choose Your Own Adventure + Singleplayer; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: Only 2 of your 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. 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).
