A typical game among these

≈ 362k–703k copies

≈ $1.4M–$2.6M after Steam's cut

from ~16k 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 7 of the similar games are hits.

Best case: Among Us at ≈ 22.8M–37.0M copies, ≈ $31.3M–$84.0M 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 8k reviews in their first month; the range was 3k to 18k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Social Deduction (5 of 7) and Survival (4 of 7).
The winners: Winners here lead with Social Deduction + Space, priced around $5. The breakout hits carry 2D + Space + Funny; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2018 to 2025, and 2 of the 7 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 38 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
