Does this actually work?

We left DragonRoad out and predicted the genre from its 8 similar games. Every figure here, including DragonRoad's, is estimated from Steam reviews, not self-reported sales.

The Souls-like lane

A niche genre: modest ceilings, most sell around 898 copies, so plan for a small audience.

A typical game
≈ 898 copies
≈ $3k after Steam's cut
from ~29 reviews
Best case
≈ 321k copies
Windblown · ≈ $3.1M after Steam's cut

A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

6 of your 8 games sit in the typical range; 2 are breakout hits far above it.

Copies and revenue are rough lifetime estimates from the review count; typical figures are medians per column, so they can come from different games.

The lane you'd be entering
  • Winners here lead with Indie, priced around $22.
  • The breakout hits carry Indie + Rogue-like + Isometric; a typical game here doesn't.
  • 4 of your 8 similar games shipped in the last two years, so this niche is actively shipping.
  • A typical game here lands in Bronze (under $10k before Steam's cut, est.); the best case reaches Diamond ($1M+). Tiers: Chris Zukowski's benchmark tiers.
