Party-Based RPG + RPG
Games tagged both Party-Based RPG and RPG: 338 indie paid launches, 25 of them earned $100k+ in their first year.
Showing Party-Based RPG + RPG priced $10 to $20, last 18 months. Lens figures exist at all prices only, so inside a price band the page shows the standard figures. This filter changes the answer: at all prices the pair is about level with Party-Based RPG and is about level with RPG; priced $10 to $20 it is about level with Party-Based RPG and trails RPG.
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.
Party-Based RPG + RPG is about level with Party-Based RPG and trails RPG: 10.1 in 100 of its launches earned $100k+ priced $10 to $20, against 9.4 in 100 for Party-Based RPG and 20.3 in 100 for RPG.
That is about 0.5 times the 20.4 in 100 expected for any launch at this price. Lens figures by price band are not computed yet, so this band uses the standard figures.
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 99 games tagged both Party-Based RPG and RPG priced $10 to $20. 10.1 in 100 of them earned $100k+, against 2 of 28 for Party-Based RPG-only games and 21.7 in 100 for RPG-only games, so the mix is too small to compare with Party-Based RPG alone and trails RPG alone.
Both: 99 games priced $10 to $20; 10.1 in 100 earned $100k+, odds by size $1k+ 80 in 100 · $10k+ 44 in 100 · $100k+ 10 in 100.
Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 99 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. The last 18 months lens is not computed for the outer parts, so this diagram uses the standard figures.
