Games like Winning Love by Daylight [Ep 1 Demo]

A typical game among these

≈ 200k–248k copies

≈ $909k–$2.0M after Steam's cut

from ~6k 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: A Date with Death at ≈ 371k–603k copies. 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 2k reviews in their first month; the range was 922 to 3k.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Dating Sim (8 of 8) and Romance (6 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Character Customization + Dating Sim. The breakout hits carry Character Customization + Free to Play + Choices Matter; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
The similar games span 2017 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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
