≈ $30k–$82k after Steam's cut

from ~664 reviews

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

2 of the 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Buy a Croquette! at ≈ 214k–348k 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 475 reviews in their first month; the range was 190 to 3k.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Puzzle (6 of 8) and Exploration (4 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with RPGMaker + Mystery, priced around $10. The breakout hits carry RPGMaker + Mystery + Sci-fi; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
The similar games span 2014 to 2024, 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 70 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
