Can I Run A Rat’s Quest?

A Rat’s Quest is an action adventure game from The Dreamerians, released in 2026. HandyGames published it. It offers a single player campaign. It carries 12 achievements. A gamepad works without remapping, since controller support is complete. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress. It is a recent release, so its requirements reflect current hardware rather than a previous generation.

Why A Rat’s Quest is demanding

A Rat’s Quest sits in the middle of the demand range, targeting GTX 1060, a tier a mainstream card from the last few generations reaches without difficulty. 16 GB of system memory is expected, the current mainstream figure. A 64 bit version of Windows is required. DirectX 12 is named, so A Rat’s Quest expects a graphics driver and card from the modern era rather than merely a fast one. A Rat’s Quest takes about 55 GB of disk space, SSD specified. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so A Rat’s Quest at the floor and A Rat’s Quest at the recommended tier are not the same experience.

This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.

Can you run A Rat’s Quest?

100%
Can run iton a typical modern PC (Ryzen 5 5600, RTX 3060, 16 GB RAM), the graphics card is the tightest fit.

A Rat’s Quest is memory-hungry: it wants 16 GB of system RAM, above the 8 GB many machines still ship with. Graphically it is undemanding, GTX 760 2GB/ Radeon 6970 1GB or better clears the minimum, so more RAM, not a new GPU, is the upgrade most players need.

Bottleneck: GPU

Projected by resolution

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pComfortable1.73x
1440pBorderline0.98x
4KBelow the bar0.43x

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.
