Games like Restrictr

A typical game among these

≈ 1k–2k copies

≈ $2k after Steam's cut

from ~29 reviews

Only the top fifth of 2019's Steam releases earned $34k or more before Steam's cut, so plan for that or less.

None of the 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: TurnSignal at ≈ 25k–41k copies. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What their first month looked like

The games that made it here had under 31 reviews in their first month.

Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Software Training (8 of 8) and Utilities (8 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Utilities + VR. The breakout hits carry Free to Play + Software; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: None of the similar games shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2020. That says more about which games were found than about the market.

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).
