1 of your 8 similar games is a hit.

No genre covers most of your similar games. The closest is Creature Collector (4 of 8), so the genre you lead with is still undecided.

Of the 416 indie games that passed 1,000 reviews in 2022, 11.8% were novel genre mixes and 88.2% stuck to an established genre. Published indie market research.

Best case: My Singing Monsters at ≈ 1.2M–2.0M 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 31 reviews in their first month; the spread ran 2 to 2k.

Under about 100 in month one, almost nothing recovers.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Creature Collector (4 of 8) and Collectathon (3 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Lovecraftian + Horror, priced around $7. The breakout hits carry Casual + Indie + Lovecraftian; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: 6 of your 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. You'd be launching into a busy stretch.

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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
