Games like Richman 4

A typical game among these

≈ 5k–7k copies

≈ $8k–$23k after Steam's cut

from ~151 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: Richman 8 at ≈ 6k–10k copies, ≈ $13k–$35k after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 24 reviews in their first month; the range was 20 to 35.

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

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Trading (5 of 8) and Tabletop (3 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Tabletop + Turn-Based Strategy, priced around $8.
When they shipped: None of the similar games shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2023. 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 38 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
