Action + Sports
Games tagged both Action and Sports: 266 indie paid launches, 9 of them earned $100k+ in their first year.
Showing Action + Sports priced $10 to $20. This filter changes the answer: at all prices the pair is about level with Action and is about level with Sports; priced $10 to $20 it trails Action and is about level with Sports.
The pair's chance of a $100k+ first year beside each of its two tags, ranked like a high-score table, with typical earnings and the launches behind every figure.
Action + Sports trails Action and is about level with Sports: 10.2 in 100 of its launches earned $100k+ priced $10 to $20, against 18.9 in 100 for Action and 10.1 in 100 for Sports.
That is about 0.5 times the 20.5 in 100 expected for any launch at this price.
Each circle is one tag, sized by its launches, and the gold overlap is exactly this pair. Click a part to read it. Price changes the odds more than genre does (under $5: 0.4 in 100 launches earned $100k+; $20 to $40: 44.2 in 100), so read it within a price band.
The overlap is this niche: the 49 games tagged both Action and Sports priced $10 to $20. 10.2 in 100 of them earned $100k+, against 19.3 in 100 for Action-only games and 10.0 in 100 for Sports-only games, so the mix trails Action alone and is about level with Sports alone.
Both: 49 games priced $10 to $20; 10.2 in 100 earned $100k+, odds by size $1k+ 78 in 100 · $10k+ 43 in 100 · $100k+ 10 in 100.
