Q: How many copies did PLAYBOOK sell?

174 to 282 copies, based on its 7 Steam reviews. This is a labeled estimate from the review count, not exact sales.

Estimated copies sold: ≈ 174–282; $478–$1k after Steam's cut $869–$2k before Steam's cut; from 7 reviews (7 user reviews); Only 7 reviews so far, so that range swings on one or two people. Read it as a hint, not a measurement.

Games like PLAYBOOK

A typical game among these

≈ 4k–14k copies

≈ $51k–$84k after Steam's cut

from ~234 reviews

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

1 of the 8 similar games is a hit.

Best case: MUSYNX at ≈ 207k–336k copies, ≈ $227k–$610k 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 60 reviews in their first month; the range was 35 to 448.

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

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Rhythm (7 of 8) and Simulation (7 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Rhythm + Music, priced around $4. The breakout hits carry Anime + Difficult + Indie; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2018 to 2025, and 2 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 38 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
