The premise, in the publisher's words

A cozy first-person sorting sim set in a 1989 video rental store. All 3,360 VHS tapes have spilled across the floor — pick them up, read the covers, and shelve them by genre. No timers, no pressure: just the quiet satisfaction of putting every last cassette back in its place.

The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i7-4790k / AMD Ryzen 5 1500X, 8 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB / AMD Radeon RX 6500XT. An 8GB memory requirement is modest by current standards; most machines sold in the last five years clear it. Install size is roughly 1GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
