≈ $7k–$9k after Steam's cut

from ~63 reviews

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

None of your 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: 4 Elements at ≈ 48k–79k copies. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here
About half the games that made it here had over 6 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 2 to 7.
Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Hidden Object (8 of 8) and Match 3 (8 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Hidden Object + Match 3. The breakout hits carry Adventure + Fantasy + Free to Play; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2010 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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
