Your set: Your set clusters on Simulation (6 of 8) and Base-Building (4 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Simulation + Automation, priced around $15.
The era: Only 2 of your 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. That says more about your picks than about the market, so add newer similar games to read the timing.
