What it took to get here

The games that made it here had under 103k reviews in their first month.

Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Action Roguelike (8 of 8) and VR (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Action Roguelike + Rogue-like, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Rogue-like + Replay Value + Difficult; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2013 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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
