How to Fish is a lightweight indie physics game, so most gaming PCs — and many laptops — should handle it. The specs below are the official requirements from theSteam store page.

Minimum requirements

OS	Windows 10+ (64-bit)
Processor	Intel Core i5-5257U / AMD Ryzen 3 1200 or equivalent
Memory	8 GB RAM
Graphics	GeForce GTX 1050 / AMD RX 460 or equivalent

Recommended requirements

Requirement	Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system

SourceSpecs are taken from the official Steam store page. Dazed Games only lists the 64-bit requirement under "Recommended" — treat the minimum table above as the practical spec to meet.

The minimum bar is low: the GTX 1050 / RX 460 listed above are budget GPUs from 2016, so almost any gaming PC — and many office laptops with a dedicated GPU — clears it. The 1 GB install size also makes it one of the smallest games you can try risk-free.

How to check your own PC

Compare the tables above with your own hardware in under a minute:

Press Win + R, type dxdiag, press Enter.
System tab shows your OS, processor, and memory (RAM).
Display tab shows your graphics card (GPU) and its VRAM.
Compare each item against the minimum table above. GPU is usually the deciding factor.

Rule of thumb: if your PC meets the recommended specs for any mid-range indie game from the last few years, you'll almost certainly run How to Fish fine.
