About

"Above: The Fallen," released in 2017, is a unique blend of adventure and indie genres that captures players with its 2D side-scrolling gameplay. The game deviates from traditional platformers by focusing on vertical progression, where players control two characters to navigate the treetop canopy of a mystical forest. This innovative twist on puzzle-platforming combines intricate puzzles with the thrill of exploration, making it a standout title in its category.

In terms of PC performance, "Above: The Fallen" is quite accessible, requiring only an entry-level GPU with a minimum benchmark score of around 300. Players can expect decent FPS even on modest hardware configurations, as the game demands only 2 GB of RAM. Recommended GPUs include lower-tier options like the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 or AMD Radeon HD 7770, which should comfortably run the game at medium graphics settings while maintaining smooth gameplay.

For those who enjoy challenging puzzles and a rich visual style, "Above: The Fallen" comes highly recommended. With its engaging gameplay and the unique premise of traveling upwards, this title offers a refreshing experience for fans of indie adventures and platformers alike.

Performance profile

September 2017 release. Above: The Fallen was built around the GTX 10-series / RX Vega era. Current-gen mid-range cards (RTX 4060 / RX 7600) are overkill at 1080p and handle 1440p Ultra comfortably.

Above: The Fallen is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.

Extremely light — Above: The Fallen runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.
