Can I Run Giraffe and Annika?

atelier mimina released Giraffe and Annika in 2020. It is an action adventure game, published by PLAYISM. It offers a single player campaign. There are 33 achievements to chase. Cloud saves are enabled. It carries 294 Steam reviews, a small sample, so first hand performance reports are thin. Being 6 years old, it was built for the hardware of its day, so a current machine usually has headroom over the published figures. The game ships for Windows alone. A gamepad works without remapping, since controller support is complete.

Setting and environment

Giraffe and Annika places its action in a gentle, brightly drawn world, and the player works through spaces built for exploration. The publisher supplies 8 storefront screenshots of these environments. It is played in three dimensions. Continuous worlds put sustained pressure on memory and storage, and Giraffe and Annika can never assume the player will stop and let it load.

Why Giraffe and Annika is demanding

Giraffe and Annika is undemanding on the graphics side. Its NVIDIA Geforce GTX 960 | AMD Radeon R9 280 target sits well below our RTX 3060 reference, so most cards still in service clear Giraffe and Annika. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so Giraffe and Annika at the floor and Giraffe and Annika at the recommended tier are not the same experience. Giraffe and Annika takes about 4 GB of disk space. At 8 GB, system memory is undemanding. It targets DirectX 10, an older feature level that almost anything still running will satisfy.

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

Can you run Giraffe and Annika?

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

Giraffe and Annika is light on hardware. Its minimum, NVIDIA Geforce GTX 750 Ti | AMD Radeon R7 360, 8 GB RAM, about 4 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

1440pComfortable1.77x
4KBelow the bar0.79x

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.
