Niches / Cozy + Family Friendly

Niche

Cozy + Family Friendly

Games tagged both Cozy and Family Friendly: 76 indie paid launches, 7 of them earned $100k+ in their first year.

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.
  • From 26,291 indie paid launches 12 to 36 months old, data of 3 Oct 2026. How it is measured.

Showing Cozy + Family Friendly priced $10 to $20. This filter changes the answer: at all prices the pair trails Cozy and beats Family Friendly; priced $10 to $20 it is too small to compare with Cozy and is too small to compare with Family Friendly.

2Overlap: where the two tags meet

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.

What the overlap means

The overlap is this niche: the 16 games tagged both Cozy and Family Friendly priced $10 to $20. 3 of 16 of them earned $100k+, against 56.3 in 100 for Cozy-only games and 9.8 in 100 for Family Friendly-only games, so the mix is too small to compare with Cozy alone and is too small to compare with Family Friendly alone.

Both: 16 games priced $10 to $20; 3 of 16 earned $100k+, odds by size $1k+ 16 of 16 launches · $10k+ 11 of 16 launches · $100k+ 3 of 16 launches.

Circle areas follow launch counts; the gold overlap is exactly the pair's 16 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.
