The middle of these games

≈ 55k–123k copies

from ~2k 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: UNO at ≈ 1.9M–3.0M copies, ≈ $5.1M–$13.8M 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 649 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 2 to 1k.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Board Game (6 of 8) and Card Game (6 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Board Game + Tabletop, priced around $10. The breakout hits carry Casual + Family Friendly + Singleplayer; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2017 to 2024, and 1 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).
