Can I Run Weaving Tides?

Released in 2021, Weaving Tides is an action adventure game built by Follow the Feathers. The game supports a single player campaign. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. At 5 years old it targets an older hardware baseline than most buyers now own. Alongside Windows it also ships for macOS. It is localised into 7 languages according to the store listing. Full controller support is present, so nothing needs configuring before a pad works. It carries 41 achievements.

Setting and environment

Players spend their time in a gentle, brightly drawn world, moving through spaces built for exploration. There are 11 official screenshots to judge the look from. The view is from an isometric view. Continuous worlds put sustained pressure on memory and storage, and Weaving Tides can never assume the player will stop and let it load.

Why Weaving Tides is demanding

Weaving Tides is undemanding on the graphics side. Its NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1060 target sits well below our RTX 3060 reference, so most cards still in service clear Weaving Tides. The install is small at roughly 3 GB. At 0.01 GB, system memory is undemanding. The distance between minimum and recommended is wide, so Weaving Tides at the floor and Weaving Tides at the recommended tier are not the same experience. Weaving Tides needs 64 bit Windows.

This reading comes from the published requirements and our own benchmark tables, not from the store listing.

Can you run Weaving Tides?

100%
Can run iton a typical modern PC (Ryzen 5 5600, RTX 3060, 16 GB RAM), the graphics card is the tightest fit.

Weaving Tides is light on hardware. Its minimum, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 or AMD Radeon HD 7950, 4 GB RAM, about 3 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

ResolutionProjectionHeadroom
1080pComfortable1.89x
1440pBorderline1.06x
4KBelow the bar0.47x

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 Weaving Tides'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.
