Did the prediction match what actually happened?

We hid Home and Dungeon and predicted how it would do from its 8 similar games. Every figure here, including Home and Dungeon's, is estimated from Steam reviews.

Games like Home and Dungeon

A typical game among these

≈ 266k–308k copies

≈ $1.4M–$2.0M after Steam's cut

from ~9k reviews

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

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

These similar games lean toward the genre's biggest winners; the typical figure comes from its ordinary successes.

No genre covers most of these similar games. The closest is Action RPG (4 of 8), so its genre is hard to place.

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: Volcano Princess at ≈ 1.2M–2.0M copies, ≈ $3.7M–$9.9M after Steam's cut. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What their first month looked like
About half the games that made it here had over 3k reviews in their first month; the range was 377 to 18k.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Action RPG (4 of 8) and Anime (4 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Life Sim + Multiple Endings, priced around $15. The breakout hits carry Anime + Simulation; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
Only 2 of the 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. 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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
