Your set: Your set clusters on Puzzle (8 of 8) and First-Person (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Puzzle + Escape Room, priced around $14. The breakout hits carry Escape Room + Mystery + Point & Click; a typical game here doesn't.

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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
