A breakout hit, far above a typical game.
The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Sandbox (6 of 8) and Simulation (5 of 8).
The winners
Winners here lead with Sandbox, priced around $20. The breakout hits carry Moddable + Singleplayer; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
None of the games you compared shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2020. That says more about your picks than about the market, so add newer similar games to read the timing.

Copies and revenue are rough lifetime estimates from the review count.
