What it took to get here

About half the games that made it here had over 32 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 9 to 331.

Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Experimental (7 of 8) and Horror (7 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Visual Novel + Psychological Horror, priced around $1. The breakout hits carry Psychological + Abstract + Interactive Fiction; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: Only 3 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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
