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

1 of your 8 similar games is a hit.

Best case: Progressbar95 at ≈ 90k–147k copies, ≈ $124k–$333k after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here
About half the games that made it here had over 24 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 14 to 58.
Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

Your set
Your set clusters on Tower Defense (7 of 8) and Puzzle (5 of 8).
The winners

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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
