A typical game among these

≈ 60k–121k copies

≈ $283k–$1.3M after Steam's cut

from ~2k reviews

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

All 8 of the similar games are hits.

Best case: Moonlighter at ≈ 747k–1.2M copies, ≈ $4.1M–$11.0M after Steam's cut. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

The similar games share Hack and Slash (5 of 8) and Action Roguelike (4 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Hack and Slash + Dungeon Crawler, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Management + Open World Survival Craft + Online Co-Op; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
The similar games span 2016 to 2024, and 1 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 52 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
