≈ 387k–450k copies

≈ $2.6M–$4.3M after Steam's cut

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.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Deckbuilding (7 of 8) and Roguelike Deckbuilder (7 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Card Game + Roguelike Deckbuilder, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Singleplayer + Card Game + Rogue-like; a typical game here doesn't.

How these numbers were worked out

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).
