A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

7 of your 8 games sit in the typical range; 1 is a breakout hit 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 Chess + Turn-Based Strategy, priced around $10.
  • The breakout hits carry Action Roguelike + Arcade + Pixel Graphics; a typical game here doesn't.
  • The games you compared span 2014 to 2025, a lane with a long track record.
  • A typical game here lands in Silver ($10k–$250k before Steam's cut, est.); the best case reaches Diamond ($1M+). Tiers: Chris Zukowski's benchmark tiers.
