Steam Deck and performance
The requirements are tiny: 4 GB of RAM and 2 GB of storage, with no recommended tier listed. CanOpener admits that optimisation has barely been done yet, so large late-game settlements are the likelier bottleneck than your GPU. On Steam Deck the game is rated Playable: some text is small, mouse and keyboard icons appear, and text entry needs the on-screen keyboard.
