What the overlap means

The overlap is this niche: the 14 games tagged both Point & Click and Psychological Horror priced $10 to $20. 5 of 14 of them earned $100k+, against 13.4 in 100 for Point & Click-only games and 25.5 in 100 for Psychological Horror-only games, so the mix is too small to compare with Point & Click alone and is too small to compare with Psychological Horror alone.

Both: 14 games priced $10 to $20; 5 of 14 earned $100k+, odds by size $1k+ 13 of 14 launches · $10k+ 10 of 14 launches · $100k+ 5 of 14 launches.

Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 14 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.
