A typical game among these

≈ 1k–6k copies

≈ $5k–$14k after Steam's cut

from ~72 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: Word Game: Episode 0 at ≈ 113k–183k 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 20 reviews in their first month; the range was 3 to 170.

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

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share 2D Platformer (6 of 8) and Choose Your Own Adventure (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Puzzle + Choose Your Own Adventure. The breakout hits carry Minimalist + Free to Play + RPG; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2018 to 2025, and 2 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 38 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
