Did the prediction match what actually happened?

We hid Baimason's Thing Finder Puzzle and predicted how it would do from its 8 similar games. Every figure here, including Baimason's Thing Finder Puzzle's, is estimated from Steam reviews.

Copies, estimated from reviews

typical (middle half) 2k–3k
best case 21k (Cyphers Game)

A typical game among these

≈ 2k–3k copies

≈ $2k–$3k after Steam's cut

from ~84 reviews

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

None of the 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Cyphers Game at ≈ 16k–26k 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 15 reviews in their first month; the range was 8 to 208.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.
The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Hidden Object (8 of 8) and Puzzle (8 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Historical + Education. The breakout hits carry Historical + Story Rich + Narration; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
None of the similar games shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2023. 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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
