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 15 games tagged both Management and Medieval priced $10 to $20. 6 of 15 of them earned $100k+, against 33.3 in 100 for Management-only games and 23.9 in 100 for Medieval-only games, so the mix is too small to compare with Management alone and is too small to compare with Medieval alone.
Both: 15 games priced $10 to $20; 6 of 15 earned $100k+, odds by size $1k+ 14 of 15 launches · $10k+ 11 of 15 launches · $100k+ 6 of 15 launches.
