A typical game among these

≈ 835–8k copies

1 of the 8 similar games is a hit.

No genre covers most of these similar games. The closest is Turn-Based Combat (3 of 8), so its genre is hard to place.

Of the 416 indie games that passed 1,000 reviews in 2022, 11.8% were novel genre mixes and 88.2% stuck to an established genre. Published indie market research.

Best case: Low Magic Age at ≈ 121k–197k copies, ≈ $500k–$1.3M after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 17 reviews in their first month; the range was 3 to 471.

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

The genre you'd be entering

The winners: Winners here lead with Dungeons & Dragons + Turn-Based Combat, priced around $15.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2017 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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
