How many copies did 100 Wars sell?

Estimated copies sold
≈ 74–121
$163–$440 after Steam's cut $296–$677 before Steam's cut
from 3 reviews (3 user reviews)
Only 3 reviews so far, so that range swings on one or two people. Read it as a hint, not a measurement.

Copies are estimated from the public review count, adjusted for release year, and cross-checked against SteamSpy's own estimate.

Games like 100 Wars

A typical game among these

≈ 218k–1.6M copies

≈ $4.8M–$31.6M after Steam's cut

from ~13k 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: Dead Space at ≈ 1.8M–2.9M copies, ≈ $29.2M–$78.4M after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like

The genre you'd be entering
These games
The similar games share Third-Person Shooter (8 of 8) and Action-Adventure (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Horror + Third-Person Shooter, priced around $60.
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 that falls with release age, from about 31 for the most recent game here to about 38 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
