1 of your 8 similar games is a hit.

Best case: Moons of Madness at ≈ 84k–137k copies, ≈ $580k–$1.6M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

About half the games that made it here had over 16 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 12 to 42.
Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

Your set
Your set clusters on Puzzle (6 of 8) and Mars (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Horror + Lovecraftian, priced around $25. The breakout hits carry Horror + Lovecraftian + First-Person; a typical game here doesn't.
The era

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