Minimum specs
Minimum on the Steam store: 2 GB of memory, 1 GB Video RAM, Shader Model 3, 1 GB of storage. Windows only.
The value story
47 discounts in the 11 years on record, a median of 50 percent off across all of them, roughly 14 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.
