Your set
Your set clusters on Visual Novel (4 of 5) and Female Protagonist (3 of 5).
The winners
Winners here lead with Cyberpunk + Visual Novel, priced around $15. The breakout hits carry Cyberpunk + Dystopian + Pixel Graphics; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
The games you compared span 2016 to 2023, 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 52 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
