Can I Run Deeply Dark?
Released in 2023, Deeply Dark is an indie simulation game built by DALESI. The game supports a single player campaign. 11 languages are covered by the store listing. A pad covers most of the game, though parts of it still expect a keyboard. The base game is free to play, so trying it costs only disk space and download time. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones.

Setting and environment
Deeply Dark places its action in an unsettling psychological setting, and the player works through spaces built for exploration. The view is from a first person view. The publisher supplies 5 storefront screenshots of these environments. That openness is what costs performance. Deeply Dark has no loading walls to hide behind, so terrain and detail keep flowing in as the player moves.
Why Deeply Dark is demanding
The graphics requirement for Deeply Dark is light. Hardware around GeForce GTX 960 or Radeon R9 380X is enough, so Deeply Dark runs on machines never bought for gaming. Deeply Dark takes about 6 GB of disk space. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so Deeply Dark at the floor and Deeply Dark at the recommended tier are not the same experience. System memory expectations are modest at 8 GB.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Deeply Dark?
Deeply Dark is light on hardware. Its minimum, GeForce GTX 760 or Radeon HD 7850, 6 GB RAM, about 3 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.

Each card is compared against Deeply Dark'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.
