Can I Run Automation Empire?
Automation Empire is an indie simulation game from DOG HOGGLER, released in 2019. DOG HOGGLER both developed and published it. It offers a single player campaign. It carries 28 achievements. Its Steam review count passes 2 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. Steam lists support for 9 languages. Being 7 years old, it was built for the hardware of its day, so a current machine usually has headroom over the published figures. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones.

Setting and environment
Players spend their time in an open sandbox, moving through production lines the player lays out. 21 storefront images show what the game actually looks like in motion. The load here grows with the save. An empty map tells you very little about how the machine will cope once the build is large.
Why Automation Empire is demanding
At 8 GB, system memory is undemanding. The install is small at roughly 4 GB. A 64 bit version of Windows is required.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
