Minimum on the Steam store: 4 GB of memory. Windows only.

The world has ended, Demons have risen to conquer the uninhabited and flourishing nature outside.  It's your turn, with your unknown identity, to find your path for a new beginning.  Let's not beat about the bush here. Reset 1-1 is everything you loved about the late 80's/early 90's. It's a blast from the past, with a fresh spin.

The value story

November 2016 is where it bottomed out, at $0.49. 76 discounts in the 10 years on record. They run about 60 percent off, roughly 6 weeks apart.

It is cheaper than 68 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 89 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Marble Mayhem: Fragile Ball ($1.99, scores 21) and Rivals of Aether ($29.99, scores 54) both outscore it.

Steam's global achievement data puts about 3 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 1.4-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour.

The drop-off

5% start to 3% finish
050100rarestfirst achievement

Steam counts fewer than one in ten of its players at the ending achievement. On a 1.4-hour game, that's a lot you pay for and may never use. Steam global achievements

No data upstream: critic score (Metacritic).
