Setting and environment

The game is set in a medieval setting. Play is structured around runs that rebuild the layout each attempt. The publisher supplies 8 storefront screenshots of these environments. Generating a fresh layout every run is processor work, so a weak CPU shows up as a pause between areas. The view is in three dimensions.

Why Hordes of Hunger is demanding

Demand in Hordes of Hunger is ordinary. The publisher has Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER or AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT in mind, which our tables place around the RTX 3060. Hordes of Hunger takes about 6 GB of disk space, SSD specified. A 64 bit version of Windows is required. Hordes of Hunger expects 16 GB of system memory. DirectX 12 is named, so Hordes of Hunger expects a graphics driver and card from the modern era rather than merely a fast one. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so Hordes of Hunger at the floor and Hordes of Hunger at the recommended tier are not the same experience.

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

Can you run Hordes of Hunger?

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

Older hardware holds up here: Hordes of Hunger runs on modest graphics, with Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 3GB or AMD Radeon R9 390 enough to meet the minimum. Add 8 GB of RAM and a mid-range CPU and a PC several years old will play it fine.

Bottleneck: GPU

Projected by resolution

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pRuns well1.31x
1440pBelow the bar0.74x
4KBelow the bar0.33x

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.
