The middle of these games

≈ 222k–707k copies

≈ $1.7M–$6.7M after Steam's cut

from ~8k reviews

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

All 8 of your similar games are hits.

Best case: XCOM® 2 at ≈ 4.5M–7.4M copies, ≈ $25.0M–$67.1M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Post-apocalyptic (8 of 8) and Turn-Based (7 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Isometric + Turn-Based Combat, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Military + PvE + Top-Down; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2014 to 2021, and none of them 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 70 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
