How many copies did Unreal World sell?

Too new to estimate
Games in its genre sell ≈ 423–2k That is the genre's figure, not a prediction for this game.
No reviews yet, so there is nothing to estimate from. That is not the same as selling nothing.
Did the prediction match what actually happened?

We hid Unreal World and predicted how it would do from its 8 similar games. Every figure here, including Unreal World's, is estimated from Steam reviews.

Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 423–2k
best case 34k (Space industrial empire)
Games like Unreal World

A typical game among these

≈ 423–2k copies

≈ $804–$2k after Steam's cut

from ~25 reviews

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

1 of the 8 similar games is a hit.

Best case: Space industrial empire at ≈ 26k–42k copies, ≈ $43k–$115k after Steam's cut. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What their first month looked like
About half the games that made it here had over 22 reviews in their first month; the range was 1 to 688.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Idler (8 of 8) and Loot (7 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Automation + Space, priced around $6. The breakout hits carry Space + Management + Automation; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
5 of the 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. You'd be launching into a busy stretch.
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).
