Did the prediction match what actually happened?

Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 65k–96k

Games like Kingdom, Dungeon, and Hero

A typical game among these

≈ 65k–96k copies

≈ $496k–$1.0M 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: Airships: Conquer the Skies at ≈ 201k–327k copies, ≈ $1.4M–$3.7M 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 815 reviews in their first month; the range was 533 to 5k.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share 4X (6 of 8) and Fantasy (4 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with 4X + War, priced around $32. The breakout hits carry War + Wargame + Vehicular Combat; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
The similar games span 2017 to 2026, 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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
