Windows minimum specifications
The official Steam store page lists Nightwater's minimum Windows specifications under the System Requirements section. Steam minimum specs cover the standard categories — required operating system (Windows), processor, memory, graphics card, DirectX version, and storage. Each category has a specific entry that Studio Ashty has set on the Steam page. Anything not listed in that Steam block is not a fact for this page.
Windows recommended specifications
The Steam page also lists recommended Windows specifications under the same System Requirements section. The recommended block targets a smoother experience across the four-era factory loop and the Manifestor biome expansion. Players targeting the lighthouse endings on high settings should use the Steam page's recommended entry as the floor.
