Updated. Commentary added.
Mostly Positive Turn-Based Strategy Wargame. Review says it's a PC version of table top board game. Unbundled.
Lowest historical, and $4 cheaper than the previous lowest. If you have this game on your wishlist, this might be a good chance to grab the game.

Other way around. Niche games targeting an older audience pretty much universally have higher prices, because they know that their target audience is one that has more disposable income, and that they won't sell a massive amount of copies either way. This holds true on both PC and in the world of tabletop games, where a game targeting a similar audience as Pike & Shot, using cardboard counters could easily cost 60-80€. Prices like these are pretty much the norm, which puts it in the same or a higher price range than some of the games with plenty of detailed plastic models.
When your target audience are people in their 40's-60's, low prices is less of a concern.

Updated. I skipped the previous bundle since I already own half of it, and the other half are games with not too stellar review, except for this one game.
Mostly Positive Pixel RPG game. Bundle once in tinyBuild Party Bundle
Lowest historical, and save $1.5 compared to previous lowest. If you missed the bundle 2 months ago, this is a good chance to grab this game.

90% off seems like a good deal for Spaceport Janitor, but I don't think I would play it anytime soon. Should I wait?

Do it. I wanted and got the tinybuild fanatical bundle mostly for this game and now it's so cheap :')

While this isn't a Star Deal per say it is a game published by Tinybuild like the current Star Deal. Community Inc. is being sold right for $1.00 which is a historical low and is being sold at this price for 3 more days. The devs posted an update in March and the reviews have been mixed. The game went from EA to launch rather quickly without many changes and the devs posted their situation in the March update. If you do buy this there is a good chance it may have minimal to no updates in the future.

Thanks. I skipped the tinyBuild Party Bundle because I felt the price was too high and I owned most of the games, but now being able to get missing games for a buck each seems better.
My main concern with Community Inc. is that the reviews seem to indicate that the game is abandoned, and any future sales are merely a cash grab. Is the game decently playable in it's current state, even if some feel that it's unfinished?
Comment has been collapsed.
They just posted an update in March, the one before that was in October. So as far the reviews go I would personally dismiss bad reviews between the end of October and March 11th that mention abandonment since they did post an update on March 12th. I picked it up in the Tinybuild bundle but havent played it.

Releasing updates to a dead game is one of the few worst bussiness-related decisions you can do in game industry. Even if they spent triple amount of effort and made the game actually enjoyable, it's the release and first touch that pretty much summarizes the game itself. That update could be the very last thing they made just to convince investors or some other companies into showing that they did deliver after all, I wouldn't count on devs putting effort for a handful of people out of their own empty pockets.
Yes, I might be wrong, and kinda hope I will, but you can't really fight with math. How many people would buy the game or recommend it to others if we spent next half a year updating it, considering that everybody already reviewed our game at release date? Exactly. That time could be as well put into making a game right from the start.
Comment has been collapsed.
I didn't actually look to see how many people were playing to call it a dead game as it's single player. But yes I understand what you are saying Archi and you very well could be correct. It unfortunately part of how it goes in gaming develop sometimes. It's a buck so maybe people will find enjoyment in it.

Playerbase doesn't matter that much for SP game, since those people are not buying game again and not generating any profit. Things would be different if it was typical mobile game with lootboxes and ads all over the place, but it's paid, full production, not labelled as early access or "work-in-progress". Patching a game, while common, is most of the time related to bug-fixes and improvements, not changing the core gameplay (that would be expansions and DLCs).
There is a handful of exceptions though, I know a few myself, so like I said it's not like anything I said above that is directly attached to community inc, a game I actually wishlisted while it was in EA, and removed from my wishlist once it was out, since it didn't turn out as I expected it to. You can't really release a game and say "it's fine, we're going to fix the core gameplay later".
I still want to see how wrong I was about it, since it's one of the few games I had "EA hope" into.

If you missed the tinybuild bundle, or only wanted the tinybuild bundle for spaceport (like me who bought it anyway lol)
Then this is a good deal.
Wish I had waited just a little more :')

Ah, I've actually wanted this one! I'll go ahead and grab it. <3

Updated. Nice deal, but most people here probably already own it from the bundle.
Very Positive 2D Single-Player Survival game. Bundled 3 times, the latest in the same tinyBuild Party Bundle.
This is the new historical lowest for the game since the game was released on Steam, and saves $3.5 compared to the previous lowest. (The game was available on IG for $1, but it was before the game was released on Steam). Nice deal if you missed the previous bundle, and want to play the game soon.

Fearless Fantasy and No Time To Explain Remastered are in the store for a buck as well. I wouldn't be surprised if we see the rest of the bundle in back to back Stars Deals.

One Euro for Final Station that's just so scandalous cheap for such a game. ^^
Comment has been collapsed.
Perhaps the game doesn't sell too well, so the old batch of keys are still mixed in. Happened before a few times.
Would you mind checking the package ID of the game?

The store page showed (and still shows) $15 for me. Maybe I just looked at the wrong page? I didn't see a bundle page for it or a deal link.

I originally clicked the link in your chart. Oh well. Not the end of the world for me. Thanks for replying!

Bump. Updated.
Very Positive Parkour game with Single and Multiplayer content. Never bundled before.
Game was cheaper on Humble Store, but if we ignore that data point, this would be the best discount for the game for the last 2 years. If you really want to play the game, this could be a good chance to pick it up. However, if you have a big backlog, it would be best to wait for deeper discount.

A bunch of tinyBuild games are currently on sale for $1 each until 2018-05-07.

Updated. I guess this is a nice deal (?). The game is permanently on sale on WinGameStore for $8. I'm a bit on edge, but I will probably wait for the whole collection to be bundled.
Mostly Positive City Building Sim game. Base game bundled 4 times, complete collection never bundled.
Lowest historical, beating the previous lowest by a dime and is 2$-3$ cheaper than regular sale price.

Updated. Great deal for those who don't own the base game. DLC bait for those who do.
Overwhelmingly Positive fighting game. Base game was bundled 9 times, all DLCs bundled at least once.
The base game and DLCs were also included in several Star Deals in the past, which are not tracked on ITAD or barter, for example:
Both of which includes Squigly DLC, which is absent from this Star Deal.
This Star Deal would include the most number of DLCs ever. However, before you drop your money on this Star Deal, it's better to wait for Skullgirls 2nd Encore Upgrade to be bundled again or grab it on sale, rather than collecting the DLCs with this deal, since the Encore Upgrade DLC includes all other DLCs, plus other updates to the game (new modes and voices) which are not accessible from the individual DLCs.
If you haven't got it from numerous bundles and Star Deal, and you love fighting game, $1 is a good price to give the game a trial run.
Comment has been collapsed.
If you've not bought skullgirls yet, get it.
Its usually the base game alone for $1.
The base game is definitely worth more than $1 alone, and comes with some dlcs this time for $1.
Comment has been collapsed.
Updated. Fans of this game probably already grabbed the game during regular sale for $10 already.
Mostly Positive Open World Batman game. Base game and DLCs were collected into a bundle once, but it costs $20.
Lowest historical, and saves $1.5 compared to previous lowest, $2 compared to the regular sale price. If you have been waiting for a deal on the full game, and you are planning to play it soon, it might be a good chance to grab it. If you already own the base game, too bad, you should skip this deal, since you get a single key for base game and DLC.

FAQ
Where do you get the number of keys to to sell and sold?
From their API endpoint. Those information is loaded every time you visit their site, just that it's not shown explicitly on the page.
I normally open the web page and use Developer Tool to look at the request, though, since I also need the link to the store page on Fanatical and Steam.
Change log
On 2018-04-06, the API endpoint has been updated to remove the
expiredDeals
entry, so some of the later deals may not have exact number of keys sold, or no data on number of keys sold when I forgot to check it.On 2018-05-02, the API endpoint has been updated to remove the number of keys available and number of keys sold, only rounded percentage is returned to the client side. We can only know the amount of keys uploaded from the
notes
returned in the API. The actual amount of keys allocated for Star Deal is unknown, but can be guessed from previous Star Deals.On 2018-05-22, the API endpoint has been updated to remove all traces of the number of keys.
On 2018-06-29, Fanatical starts to support AUD.
On 2018-08-10, Fanatical starts to support RUB.
On 2020-10-14, I found out from this comment that the RUB price is not always accurate, so I'll not be reporting RUB prices from now on.
