Games like Druid

A typical game among these

≈ 39k–146k copies

≈ $332k–$1.3M after Steam's cut

from ~2k reviews

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

6 of the 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night at ≈ 1.2M–2.0M copies, ≈ $13.2M–$35.6M 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 660 reviews in their first month; the range was 165 to 3k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Metroidvania (7 of 8) and Platformer (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Metroidvania + Female Protagonist, priced around $40. The breakout hits carry RPG + Anime + Side Scroller; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: Only 2 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 that falls with release age, from about 31 for the most recent game here to about 36 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
