Can I Run Prehistoric Kingdom?
Prehistoric Kingdom is an indie simulation game from Blue Meridian, released in 2022. Crytivo published it. It offers a single player campaign. It carries 28 achievements. With more than 5 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. Cloud saves are enabled. It is a Windows title, so the requirements below are the Windows ones. 7 languages are covered by the store listing. 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.

Setting and environment
Players spend their time in an open sandbox, moving through systems the player balances from above. The view is in three dimensions. The publisher supplies 22 storefront screenshots of these environments. The load here grows with the save. An empty map tells you very little about how the machine will cope once the build is large.
Why Prehistoric Kingdom is demanding
Prehistoric Kingdom sits in the middle of the demand range, targeting nVidia RTX 2060 (, a tier a mainstream card from the last few generations reaches without difficulty. Its 16 GB RAM requirement matches what a typical machine already has. Prehistoric Kingdom takes about 10 GB of disk space. Minimum and recommended sit far apart here, which usually means Prehistoric Kingdom scales hard with the hardware you give it.
This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.
Can you run Prehistoric Kingdom?
Older hardware holds up here: Prehistoric Kingdom runs on modest graphics, with nVidia GTX 1060 (4GB)/AMD R9 380 (4GB) enough to meet the minimum. Add 12 GB of RAM and a mid-range CPU and a PC several years old will play it fine.
Bottleneck: GPU
Projected by resolution
| Resolution | Projection | Headroom |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | Runs well | 1.26x |
| 1440p | Below the bar | 0.71x |
| 4K | Below the bar | 0.31x |
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.

Each card is compared against Prehistoric Kingdom's published GPU requirement, assuming an otherwise-capable PC. Laptop rows use the real mobile chip's benchmark, a mobile GPU is always slower than its desktop namesake.
