Rune Log minimum and recommended PC requirements
The minimum specification is modest on paper. Steam lists an Intel Core i3 or equivalent CPU, 4 GB of memory, and integrated graphics with DirectX 11 support. The store page does not name a processor generation, a specific integrated GPU, a target resolution, or a frame-rate target, so those details should not be inferred from the short hardware list.
| Component | Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| Operating system | Windows 10 64-bit | Windows 10 or Windows 11 64-bit |
| Processor | Intel Core i3 or equivalent | Intel Core i5, AMD Ryzen 3, or better |
| Memory | 4 GB RAM | 8 GB RAM |
| Graphics | Integrated graphics with DirectX 11 support | Modern integrated graphics or a dedicated GPU with DirectX 11 support |
| DirectX | Version 11 | Version 11 |
| Storage | 500 MB available space | 500 MB available space |
| Sound | Any sound card | Any sound card |
The recommended line is still broad. “Modern integrated graphics” is the wording on the Steam page; it is not tied to a named Intel, AMD, or Nvidia model. Buyers with older or unusual hardware should compare the live store listing with their system rather than treating an unspecified graphics label as a performance guarantee.
Does Rune Log support macOS, Linux, or Steam Deck?
Steam currently marks Rune Log as a Windows game. The listing does not show native macOS or Linux support, and its published requirements contain only a Windows section.
The public store page also does not make a Steam Deck compatibility claim. That absence is different from a formal “Unsupported” label; it means the cited page does not provide a Deck status. Proton behavior and community workarounds fall outside what the developer’s current listing confirms.
How much storage does Rune Log need?
Both the minimum and recommended specifications list 500 MB of available storage. That number is the published space requirement, not a measured download size. The listing does not explain whether installation or updates need temporary space, so 500 MB should not be read as a guaranteed peak disk-use figure.
Language and Steam feature checklist
The Steam listing currently names English as the only supported language. It does not claim interface, audio, or subtitle support in another language.
| Feature | Current listing | Boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Single-player | Listed | No multiplayer mode is listed. |
| Steam Cloud | Listed | The public page does not explain which files or settings are synchronized. |
| Family Sharing | Listed | The store page does not explain eligibility conditions. |
| Controller support | Not listed | The page does not publish a controller-support claim. |
What kind of game is Rune Log?
The developer describes Rune Log as a single-player occult detective word game. Each case asks the player to decode a runic scripture letter by letter, interpret it, and type a conclusion in response to a villager’s question. The cases deal with mysteries such as a death, fraud, a haunting, or an old secret.
That description establishes the intended structure, but it does not answer hardware-specific questions such as input remapping, ultrawide support, frame-rate limits, or accessibility options. None of those details are documented on the cited store page, so this guide leaves them unconfirmed.
Buying checklist
- Use a 64-bit Windows 10 or Windows 11 PC; only Windows is currently listed.
- Confirm that the graphics hardware supports DirectX 11.
- Keep at least 500 MB free, while allowing extra room for Steam’s download and update process.
- Expect English-only support unless the developer updates the language table.
- Do not assume controller, Steam Deck, macOS, or Linux support from the published listing.
Requirements and platform labels can change after release. Check the live Steam page before buying if one of these boundaries affects your decision.
