ReStory System Requirements — PC & Mac Specs
ReStory: Chill Electronics Repairs is a light game by modern standards — the official minimums are forgiving, and the game runs on modest hardware (it even sits at a Playable Steam Deck rating). Here are the official requirements from the Steam store page, plus what they mean in practice. For platform coverage beyond PC and Mac, see the platforms guide.
Here's what you'll learn:
- Official Windows minimum requirements
- Official Mac requirements
- What specs matter in practice
Windows Minimum Requirements (Official)
| Component | Minimum |
|---|---|
| OS | Windows 10 64-bit |
| Processor | 2-core / 4-thread CPU |
| Memory | 4 GB RAM |
| Graphics | GTX 750 Ti |
| DirectX | Version 11 |
| Storage | 1 GB available space |
No "recommended" tier is officially published — the minimum is the spec.
Mac Requirements (Official)
| Component | Minimum |
|---|---|
| OS | macOS 14 or newer |
| Processor | Apple M1 (requires an Apple processor) |
| Memory | 8 GB RAM |
| Graphics | Apple integrated GPU (M1) |
| Storage | 1 GB available space |
Mac support requires Apple Silicon — no Intel Mac build is offered. This is a notable difference from the Windows version.
What the Specs Mean in Practice
The game simulates a lot of small object interactions — tiny screws, layered dirt, component physics — so even modest PCs can see occasional hitches:
- 4 GB RAM is genuinely enough, but 8 GB is more comfortable for longer sessions
- The GPU matters less than CPU scheduling — players have reported frame drops and stuttering tied to CPU load and background services rather than raw graphics horsepower
- 1 GB storage is accurate — it's a small download (~0.55 GB in the repack scene), quick to install
Launch-week players reported occasional stuttering and mouse lag during cleaning. Most fixes were configuration-side (background services, display settings) rather than hardware — see the community discussion referenced in our updates guide. The developer also published the game's own performance patches.
Steam Deck
ReStory is officially rated Playable on Steam Deck — it runs, with some text or interface elements that may be small on the handheld screen. The developer has said full Verified status is being worked toward. Community reports describe it as a perfect deck-and-tea game. Details in the Steam Deck guide.
FAQ
Can my PC run ReStory? Almost certainly — Windows 10 64-bit, a 2-core/4-thread CPU, 4 GB RAM and a GTX 750 Ti are the entire ask. If your machine can run most games from the last decade, it runs ReStory.
