Can I Run Flock?

Released in 2026, Flock is a casual indie game built by Friend Shaped Games. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. Controller support is partial, so some input still falls back to the keyboard. There are 19 achievements to chase. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress. It is localised into 9 languages according to the store listing. This is current generation software, and the requirements read that way. Alongside Windows it also ships for macOS and Linux. With more than 1 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented.

Scores are deterministic, computed by fixed rules and benchmark tables, not written by an AI. How we score. Maintained by Farhad Ali. Spotted a wrong specification? Tell us.

Setting and environment

Players spend their time in a gentle, brightly drawn world, moving through spaces built for exploration. Open environments are the harder case for a PC, and Flock has to keep far more of its world resident and streaming than a level based game needs. It is played in three dimensions. 9 storefront images show what the game actually looks like in motion.

Why Flock is demanding

Demand in Flock is ordinary. The publisher has GTX 1060 in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. Flock takes about 4 GB of disk space. 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 Flock?

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

Flock targets a mainstream modern PC: GTX 1060 and 8 GB of RAM for the minimum. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.

Bottleneck: GPU

Projected by resolution

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pComfortable1.7x
1440pBorderline0.96x
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.

Each card is compared against Flock'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.
