≈ 1k–3k copies

≈ $1k–$2k after Steam's cut

from ~40 reviews

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

2 of the 8 similar games are hits.

Best case: Last Call BBS at ≈ 40k–64k copies, ≈ $218k–$585k after Steam's cut. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

The similar games share Puzzle (6 of 8) and Arcade (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Simulation + Arcade, priced around $16. The breakout hits carry Simulation + Gambling + Loot; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped
The similar games span 2016 to 2024, and 1 of the 8 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).
