≈ 2k–13k copies

≈ $1k–$5k after Steam's cut

from ~228 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: Coin Flipper at ≈ 12k–20k copies, ≈ $10k–$27k after Steam's cut.

What their first month looked like
About half the games that made it here had over 21 reviews in their first month; the range was 10 to 48.
Games with under about 100 reviews in month one almost never recover.

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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
