≈ 147–176 copies

≈ $113–$355 after Steam's cut

from ~5 reviews

None of the 8 similar games are hits.

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

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

The winners: Winners here lead with Precision Platformer + Mystery Dungeon, priced around $8. The breakout hits carry Dungeon Crawler; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2019 to 2025, and 3 of the 8 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 36 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
