best case 12.1M (People Playground)
Games like Gladio and Glory

A typical game among these

≈ 1.1M–1.2M copies

≈ $2.9M–$8.2M after Steam's cut

from ~25k 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.

Best case: People Playground at ≈ 9.2M–15.0M copies, ≈ $25.4M–$68.2M 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 6k reviews in their first month; the range was 960 to 12k.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Gore (8 of 8) and Physics (6 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Sandbox + Gore, priced around $10. The breakout hits carry Moddable + 2D + Sandbox; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
The similar games span 2009 to 2023, and none of them 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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
