Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap for the Sega Master System. There is actually a really good remake for the game that was released in 2016, it lets you play with remade graphics or the original 8-bit sprites.

Some time ago, a supposed psychology major pointed out that the color purple stimulates the 'spending' parts of your brain more than any other color. Could be bullshit, but given this, and the fact that they try to entice you to spend shitloads of money for the answer, there may be a kernel of truth to it.
