Games like Match Village

A typical game among these

≈ 375–8k copies

≈ $1k–$27k after Steam's cut

from ~26 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: Triple Town at ≈ 52k–85k copies, ≈ $143k–$385k after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 6 reviews in their first month; the range was 2 to 23.

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

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Match 3 (8 of 8) and Puzzle (8 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Puzzle + Match 3, priced around $10.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2012 to 2023, and none of them 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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
