Your set: Your set clusters on Action-Adventure (5 of 8) and Exploration (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Open World + Post-apocalyptic, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Post-apocalyptic + RPG + Atmospheric; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2012 to 2024, and 2 of your 8 shipped in the last two years.

How these numbers were worked out

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).
