7 of your 8 similar games are hits.

No genre covers most of your similar games. The closest is Automobile Sim (3 of 8), so the genre you lead with is still undecided.

What it took to get here

About half the games that made it here had over 459 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 432 to 58k.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Automobile Sim (3 of 8) and Simulation (3 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Open World + Automobile Sim, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Open World + Crime + Third Person; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2006 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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
