The genre you'd be entering

These games: The similar games share Turn-Based Tactics (6 of 8) and Tactical (5 of 8).
The winners: Winners here lead with CRPG + Character Customization, priced around $40.
When they shipped: None of the similar games shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2021. That says more about which games were found than about the market.

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).
