The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Rhythm (8 of 8) and Music (7 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Music + Rhythm, priced around $3. The breakout hits carry Cute + Sexual Content + Female Protagonist; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2017 to 2025, and 2 of your 8 shipped in the last two years.

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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
