The middle of these games

≈ 240k–418k copies

≈ $2.3M–$2.5M after Steam's cut

from ~9k reviews

Only the top fifth of 2019’s Steam releases earned about $34k gross, so plan for that or less.

All 8 of your similar games are hits.

Best case: Heavy Rain at ≈ 768k–1.2M copies, ≈ $4.2M–$11.4M 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 953 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 350 to 3k.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Choices Matter (5 of 8) and Story Rich (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Choices Matter + Story Rich, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Cinematic + Narration + Thriller; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2017 to 2024, and 2 of your 8 shipped in the last two years.
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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
