Games like Megaloot

A typical game among these

≈ 96k–244k copies

≈ $294k–$888k after Steam's cut

from ~3k 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: Path of Exile at ≈ 15.8M–25.7M copies. 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 5k reviews in their first month; the range was 180 to 102k.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Dungeon Crawler (6 of 8) and Action RPG (4 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Dark Fantasy + Action RPG, priced around $30. The breakout hits carry Dark Fantasy + Hack and Slash + MMORPG; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
The similar games span 2013 to 2025, and 3 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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
