The winners
Winners here lead with Turn-Based Combat + Dark Fantasy, priced around $25. The breakout hits carry Turn-Based Combat + Difficult + Turn-Based; a typical game here doesn't.

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).
