How many copies did Europa sell?

Q: How many copies did Europa sell?

23k to 37k copies, based on its 919 Steam reviews. This is a labeled estimate from the review count, not exact sales.

Estimated copies sold: ≈ 23k–37k; $94k–$253k after Steam's cut $171k–$389k before Steam's cut; from 919 reviews (Very Positive)

Games like Europa

A typical game among these

≈ 635–1k copies

≈ $243–$6k 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: Spider Fox at ≈ 2k copies, ≈ $3k–$9k after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like

About half the games that made it here had over 5 reviews in their first month; the range was 1 to 37.

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

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share 3D Platformer (7 of 8) and Creature Collector (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Action-Adventure + Exploration, priced around $8.
When they shipped: Only 3 of the 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. 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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
