2 of your 8 similar games are hits.

No genre covers most of your similar games. The closest is Text-Based (4 of 8), so the genre you lead with is still undecided.

Of the 416 indie games that passed 1,000 reviews in 2022, 11.8% were novel genre mixes and 88.2% stuck to an established genre. Published indie market research.

Best case: Homicipher at ≈ 206k–334k copies, ≈ $791k–$2.1M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here

About half the games that made it here had over 44 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 7 to 3k.

Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Text-Based (4 of 8) and Typing (4 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Horror + Otome, priced around $14. The breakout hits carry Otome + Female Protagonist + Multiple Endings; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: 5 of your 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. You'd be launching into a busy stretch.

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