Can I Run Legend of Grimrock II?
Legend of Grimrock II is an adventure indie game from Almost Human Games, released in 2014. Almost Human Games both developed and published it. The game supports a single player campaign. Its Steam review count passes 3 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. There are 60 achievements to chase. At more than a decade old it predates every current graphics architecture, which helps compatibility and limits how well it exploits a modern card. Steam Workshop support means community content is part of the picture, and a heavy mod load can push the real requirements past anything the publisher lists. Saves sync through Steam Cloud, so moving between machines does not cost progress. Alongside Windows it also ships for macOS.
