Can I Run Alisa?

Alisa is an action adventure game from Casper Croes, released in 2021. Casper Croes both developed and published it. It offers a single player campaign. Over 1 thousand players have left a Steam review, so this is a title whose performance is widely reported. A pad covers most of the game, though parts of it still expect a keyboard. Being 5 years old, it was built for the hardware of its day, so a current machine usually has headroom over the published figures. Completionists have 25 achievements to work through. Alongside Windows it also ships for macOS and Linux.

Setting and environment

Alisa is set in a deliberately retro presentation. The view is in three dimensions. 7 storefront images show what the game actually looks like in motion.

Why Alisa is demanding

Alisa makes almost no demand of the graphics card. Nearly any machine built in the last decade clears the stated Intel HD graphics target. At 4 GB, system memory is undemanding. Alisa takes about 1 GB of disk space. The DirectX requirement is undemanding, at version 10.

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

Can you run Alisa?

100%

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

Alisa targets a mainstream modern PC: Any GPU supporting DirectX 9 and 2 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to Intel HD graphics or better for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.

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.

Each card is compared against Alisa's published GPU requirement, assuming an otherwise-capable PC. Laptop rows use the real mobile chip's benchmark, a mobile GPU is always slower than its desktop namesake.
