Farming Sim + Simulation

Games tagged both Farming Sim and Simulation: 199 indie paid launches, 23 of them earned $100k+ in their first year.

How to read this page

A hit is an estimated $100k+ first year. Revenue is estimated from Steam reviews, so read figures as "about". Earnings are sales on Steam after discounts and regional prices, before Steam's 30% cut, refunds and sales tax. About 58% of it reaches the developer.
Price moves the odds more than genre does, so the page opens on one price band. The keys in section 2 switch it.

2Overlap: where the two tags meet

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: 0.5 in 100 launches earned $100k+; $20 to $40: 40.0 in 100), so read it within a price band.

What the overlap means

The overlap is this niche: the 39 games tagged both Farming Sim and Simulation priced $10 to $20. 23.1 in 100 of them earned $100k+, against 20.4 in 100 for Farming Sim-only games and 20.8 in 100 for Simulation-only games, so the mix is about level with Farming Sim alone and is about level with Simulation alone.

Both: 39 games priced $10 to $20; 23.1 in 100 earned $100k+, typical first-year earnings $17,302.

Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 39 launches. The outer parts are each tag's launches minus the pair's, so their chance is exact; their typical earnings are not computed yet.

It also leads Farming Sim, with 32.3% of that tag's money.
Simulation is led by Schedule I, with 17.6% of its money.
No game holds over half of this pair's money, so the pair is not a one-hit market.
