Can I Run Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book?
KOEI TECMO GAMES CO., LTD. released Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book in 2021. It is a role playing game, self published by the studio. The game supports a single player campaign. It carries 45 achievements. Being 5 years old, it was built for the hardware of its day, so a current machine usually has headroom over the published figures. With only 951 reviews on Steam, there is little community data on how it behaves across hardware. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress. Only some of the game is mapped to a controller. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones.

Why Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book is demanding
Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book is undemanding on the graphics side. Its NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 or over, AMD Radeon RX 470 or over, 1920x1080 target sits well below our RTX 3060 reference, so most cards still in service clear Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book. Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book needs only 8 GB of RAM. A 64 bit version of Windows is required. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book scales hard with the hardware you give it. Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book takes about 12 GB of disk space.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book?

Its minimum, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 or over, AMD Radeon RX 560 or over, 1280x720, 8 GB RAM, about 12 GB free, sits below what an entry-level PC ships with today, so nearly any modern machine, and many older ones, will run it.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 2.83x |
| 1440p | Runs well | 1.59x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.71x |
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.

| GTX 1060 6 GB | Runs great |
| GTX 1060 Laptop | Runs great |
| GTX 1650 4 GB | Runs great |
