Games like The Bibites: Digital Life

A typical game among these

≈ 212k–365k copies

≈ $862k–$2.9M after Steam's cut

from ~8k 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: WorldBox - God Simulator at ≈ 1.4M–2.3M copies, ≈ $7.8M–$20.9M 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 2k reviews in their first month; the range was 316 to 7k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Sandbox (7 of 8) and Simulation (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Sandbox + God Game, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Pixel Graphics + Colony Sim + Life Sim; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: Only 1 of the 8 similar games shipped in the last two years. That says more about which games were found than about the market.

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 36 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
