≈ $11.5M–$15.1M after Steam's cut

from ~47k reviews

Only the top fifth of 2019’s Steam releases earned about $34k gross, so plan for that or less.

All 8 of your similar games are hits.

Best case: Stardew Valley at ≈ 43.2M–70.1M copies, ≈ $177.9M–$478.3M after Steam's cut. A breakout hit, far above a typical game.

What it took to get here

About half the games that made it here had over 4k reviews in their first month; the spread ran 953 to 17k.

The genre you'd be entering

Your set: Your set clusters on Simulation (8 of 8) and Life Sim (4 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Life Sim + Simulation, priced around $15. The breakout hits carry Life Sim + Character Customization + Free to Play; a typical game here doesn't.
The era: The games you compared span 2016 to 2024, and 1 of your 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 52 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
