Did the prediction match what actually happened?

Games like Linked Worlds

A typical game among these

≈ 569–2k copies

≈ $2k–$17k 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: Elminage Gothic at ≈ 12k–19k copies, ≈ $33k–$88k 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 1 to 62.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share JRPG (6 of 8) and First-Person (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Dungeon Crawler + Turn-Based, priced around $10.
When they shipped
The similar games span 2014 to 2024, and 3 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 70 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
