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.

What the overlap means

The overlap is this niche: the 15 games tagged both Roguelike Deckbuilder and Turn-Based Tactics priced $10 to $20. 7 of 15 of them earned $100k+, against 32.9 in 100 for Roguelike Deckbuilder-only games and 15.4 in 100 for Turn-Based Tactics-only games, so the mix is too small to compare with Roguelike Deckbuilder alone and is too small to compare with Turn-Based Tactics alone.

Both: 15 games priced $10 to $20; 7 of 15 earned $100k+, odds by size $1k+ 14 of 15 launches · $10k+ 11 of 15 launches · $100k+ 7 of 15 launches.

Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 15 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.
