Estimated copies sold
≈ 99–161
$272–$732 after Steam's cut $495–$1k before Steam's cut
from 4 reviews (4 user reviews)
Only 4 reviews so far, so that range swings on one or two people. Read it as a hint, not a measurement.

Copies are estimated from the public review count, adjusted for release year, and cross-checked against SteamSpy's own estimate.

Did the prediction match what actually happened?

We hid BombSweeperVR and predicted how it would do from its 8 similar games. Every figure here, including BombSweeperVR's, is estimated from Steam reviews.

Copies, estimated from reviews

A typical game among these

≈ 179–325 copies

≈ $691–$1k after Steam's cut

from ~7 reviews

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

None of the 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Mystery Solitaire The Black Raven at ≈ 720–1k copies, ≈ $3k–$8k after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like
About half the games that made it here had over 2 reviews in their first month; the range was 1 to 12.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Hidden Object (8 of 8) and Puzzle (8 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Card Game + Solitaire, priced around $15.
When they shipped
Only 2 of the 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. That says more about which games were found than about the market.
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 36 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
