Games like Munich Bus Simulator

A typical game among these

≈ 6.6M–11.8M copies

≈ $40.6M–$184.4M after Steam's cut

from ~197k 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: Euro Truck Simulator 2 at ≈ 59.7M–97.0M copies, ≈ $328.0M–$881.9M 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 42k reviews in their first month; the range was 17k to 84k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Automobile Sim (7 of 8) and Driving (7 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Driving + Transportation, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Transportation + Moddable + Relaxing; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2012 to 2025, and 1 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 79 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
