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

Best case: JellyCar Worlds at ≈ 27k–44k copies, ≈ $59k–$159k after Steam's cut. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

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 61 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
