1 of the 8 similar games is a hit.

No genre covers most of these similar games. The closest is Card Game (3 of 8), so its genre is hard to place.

Best case: Clicker Heroes at ≈ 3.0M–4.9M copies. It is a breakout hit, far above a typical game.

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