Can I Run Nine Parchments?
Released in 2017, Nine Parchments is an action role playing game built by Frozenbyte. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. Two players can share one screen on a single machine, which is rare enough now to be worth noting. It is localised into 8 languages according to the store listing. Cloud saves are enabled. 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 9 years mean the stated figures describe machines that were current then, not now. It carries 54 achievements.

Why Nine Parchments is demanding
The graphics requirement for Nine Parchments is light. Hardware around GeForce GTX 770 is enough, so Nine Parchments runs on machines never bought for gaming. Nine Parchments takes about 7 GB of disk space. Nine Parchments needs only 8 GB of RAM. The DirectX requirement is undemanding, at version 10.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Nine Parchments?
Nine Parchments targets a mainstream modern PC: 1 GB Video RAM - NVIDIA GeForce 500 Series / Radeon HD 6000 Series and 4 GB of RAM for the minimum, stepping up to GeForce GTX 770 2GB / Radeon R9 380 for the recommended experience. No single part dominates the requirements, so a balanced mid-range build clears it.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Comfortable | 3.27x |
| 1440p | Comfortable | 1.84x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.82x |
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.
