The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Exploration (6 of 8) and Metroidvania (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with 3D Platformer + Metroidvania, priced around $17. The breakout hits carry Dark Fantasy; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
None of the games you compared shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2023. That says more about your picks than about the market, so add newer similar games to read the timing.
