A typical game among these

≈ 11k–22k copies

≈ $29k–$97k after Steam's cut

from ~492 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: Pawnbarian at ≈ 22k–36k copies, ≈ $62k–$165k after Steam's cut.

The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Rogue-like (5 of 8) and Card Game (4 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Rogue-like + Turn-Based Combat, priced around $10.
When they shipped
Only 3 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 of about 31, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
