≈ 433–2k copies

≈ $1k–$6k after Steam's cut

from ~37 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: DOOMED Detective Game at ≈ 2k–3k copies, ≈ $3k–$9k after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like
About half the games that made it here had over 17 reviews in their first month; the range was 3 to 65.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.

When they shipped

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