Games like Monster Prom

A typical game among these

≈ 164k–222k copies

≈ $857k–$1.6M after Steam's cut

from ~6k 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: House Party at ≈ 383k–623k copies, ≈ $2.6M–$7.1M 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 2k reviews in their first month; the range was 922 to 11k.

The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Dating Sim (6 of 8) and Visual Novel (6 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with Choices Matter, priced around $25. The breakout hits carry Choices Matter + Free to Play; a typical game here doesn't.
When they shipped: The similar games span 2017 to 2023, 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 43 for the oldest, then widened into a range; revenue rides on that estimate times price. Source: GameDiscoverCo (2020) and VG Insights (2021).
