Combine 2-5 Steam tags (roguelike + deckbuilder + cozy). We intersect them across the catalog to find your actual competition.
Market size, not vibes

Compare two tags side by side to see how the pairing performs. Roguelike + Deckbuilding, for example: 3,255 released games in Steam's store search against 14,972 for Roguelike alone, and a median of under 5 reviews for the typical game against 34 - a narrower pocket where the typical game is reviewed less, not more.
The month in one document. August 2026, for example: 1,400 indie releases and the 18 genres ranked slowest-filling first.
What this is not
- - Not a guarantee of success. Estimates have error bars. A healthy niche still needs a great game.
- - Not a replacement for playtesting or wishlist tracking. Those come later.
- - Not coverage of itch.io, mobile or console. Steam only - that's where most indie sales happen.
