The middle of these games

≈ 472–1k copies

≈ $426–$2k after Steam's cut

from ~19 reviews

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

None of your 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: The Jackbox Party Pack 10 at ≈ 15k–25k copies, ≈ $128k–$343k after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Trivia (7 of 8) and Puzzle (6 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Trivia + Puzzle, priced around $22. The breakout hits carry Multiplayer + Comedy + Party; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
Only 2 of your 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. That says more about your picks than about the market, so add newer similar games to read the timing.
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 36 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
