≈ $127k–$378k after Steam's cut

from ~1k 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: Baba Is You at ≈ 705k–1.1M copies, ≈ $2.9M–$7.8M 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 376 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 310 to 897.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Puzzle (7 of 8) and Sokoban (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Puzzle + Logic, priced around $17. The breakout hits carry Indie + Singleplayer + Logic; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2015 to 2023, and none of them 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 61 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
