Can I Run Kaboom!?
Free Particle released Kaboom! in 2025. It is a casual indie game, self published by the studio. The game supports a single player campaign and competitive multiplayer. It handles controllers properly rather than leaving the player to bind buttons by hand. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress. It is not Windows only, with macOS covered too. It is a recent release, so its requirements reflect current hardware rather than a previous generation. It carries 145 achievements. It carries 539 Steam reviews, a small sample, so first hand performance reports are thin. Steam lists support for 12 languages.

Setting and environment
Players spend their time in an anime styled world, moving through runs that rebuild the layout each attempt. The publisher supplies 10 storefront screenshots of these environments. Layouts generated at run time move the load onto the processor at the moment each new area is built.
Why Kaboom! is demanding
Kaboom! is undemanding on the graphics side. Its NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 / AMD Radeon R9 270X / Intel Arc A380 target sits well below our RTX 3060 reference, so most cards still in service clear Kaboom!. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Kaboom! scales hard with the hardware you give it. Kaboom! needs only 8 GB of RAM. Kaboom! takes about 1 GB of disk space. Kaboom! names Windows 11, so a Windows 10 machine may need attention first.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Kaboom!?
Kaboom! is light on hardware. Its minimum, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti, 2 GB / AMD Radeon HD 7770, 2 GB / Intel Iris Plus, 8 GB RAM, about 1 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 | 3.95x |
| 1440p | Comfortable | 2.22x |
| 4K | Borderline | 0.99x |
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.
