A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

4 of your 8 games sit in the typical range; 4 are breakout hits far above it.

The lane you'd be entering
  • Winners here lead with Action Roguelike + Rogue-lite, priced around $25.
  • The breakout hits carry Action Roguelike + Rogue-lite + 2D; a typical game here doesn't.
