Can I Run I Am The Hero?
Crazyant released I Am The Hero in 2017. It is an action adventure game, self published by the studio. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. Being 9 years old, it was built for the hardware of its day, so a current machine usually has headroom over the published figures. It carries 491 Steam reviews, a small sample, so first hand performance reports are thin. It handles controllers properly rather than leaving the player to bind buttons by hand. It keeps shared screen play alive, so a second player needs only a second controller. Builds exist for macOS and Linux as well as Windows. There are 36 achievements to chase. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress.

Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 48.57x |
| 1440p | Comfortable | 27.32x |
| 4K | Comfortable | 12.14x |
A projection, not a measurement. We scale the published GPU requirement by pixel count, since 1440p draws 1.78 times the pixels of 1080p and 4K draws 4 times as many, then compare against RTX 3060 / Ryzen 5 build. The publisher did not state a target resolution, so 1080p is assumed as the baseline. We hold no frame rate data, so no FPS figure is claimed. Headroom above 1 means the reference machine has room to spare at that resolution.
