Games like Egyptian Senet

A typical game among these

≈ 77k–161k copies

≈ $382k–$1.0M after Steam's cut

from ~3k 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: UNO at ≈ 1.9M–3.0M copies, ≈ $5.1M–$13.8M 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 571 reviews in their first month; the range was 325 to 3k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Tabletop (7 of 8) and Board Game (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Tabletop, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Real Time Tactics + War + America; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2016 to 2022, and none of them 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 52 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
