Check out my new game, Tycoon Manager HD Pro.
have gone on a deep dive into Steam, ranking 212 words based on the median gross lifetime revenue of games that have them in the title. The results they pull out of their data may not all be super surprising, but that doesn't mean they're not interesting.
Number one with a bullet is the word HD, with a median gross Steam revenue of $63,082. It's not the only word commonly associated with rereleases near the top of the list, with Remastered at number three and Gold at number six . Collection, Deluxe, and Ultimate all place solidly as well. Nothing shocking there, of course. We live in an age of remakes, which is fineSlightly more unexpected is how well management sims are represented.
Some of the words obviously earn their rank thanks to individual standouts rather than larger trends. The word Call comes in at number seven thanks to Call of Duty I assume, unless a lot more people bought into the Call of Juarez series than I'd expect. GameDiscoverCo pulled a few trends out of their data, most notably that"Almost all of the median revenue numbers are worryingly low". The amount of games released on Steam every month is huge, and most of them sink without a trace. Especially if they have the word Jump in the name apparently, with a median gross lifetime revenue coming in at a measly $43.
GameDiscoverCo also notes words like Witch, Black, and Dead are more popular than words like Farm or Little, and suggests this is due to a dislike of cozy games among"Steam's 'grimdark' audience".
