The pair's chance of a $100k+ first year beside each of its two tags, ranked like a high-score table, with typical earnings and the launches behind every figure.

That is about 0.6 times the 18.6 in 100 expected for any launch at this price.
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: 0.5 in 100 launches earned $100k+; $20 to $40: 42.4 in 100), so read it within a price band.
The overlap is this niche: the 89 games tagged both Logic and Puzzle priced $10 to $20. 11.2 in 100 of them earned $100k+, against 14.3 for Logic-only games and 14.1 for Puzzle-only games, so games with both tags did worse than games with either tag alone.
