Can I Run Katamari Damacy?
Released in 2018, Katamari Damacy is an action casual game built by MONKEYCRAFT Co. Ltd.. Publishing duties went to BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment. The game supports a single player campaign and competitive multiplayer. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. It handles controllers properly rather than leaving the player to bind buttons by hand. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. With more than 4 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. Its 8 years mean the stated figures describe machines that were current then, not now. Completionists have 21 achievements to work through. Split screen on one PC is supported, a feature most releases have quietly dropped. Metacritic places it at 81. 6 languages are covered by the store listing.

Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 8.95x |
| 1440p | Comfortable | 5.03x |
| 4K | Comfortable | 2.24x |
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.
