About The Test
The Test is a short, choice-based game from Randumb Studios in which you answer a series of personal and moral questions. As you go, the answers are meant to reveal something about who you are, and some of the questions are designed to make you feel uncomfortable. It is a single player experience that works with a controller, and it suits players who like thinking about tricky choices more than fast action. Its needs are tiny, so it runs on any computer.
What The Test needs
In plain words: to play at all it needs not stated by the makers.

Will my computer play The Test?
On most computers we find the graphics card for you. Add your processor and memory, and we will tell you if it plays, and what to upgrade if not.
A low-spec PC or a high-spec PC?
On a PC that only just meets the minimum, the game will start and play, but on low settings: simpler shadows and textures, shorter view distances and fewer frames each second, so fast moments can feel less smooth. A 1080p screen is the sensible match.
On a PC that meets or beats the recommended spec, you can turn the settings up: sharper textures, proper shadows and lighting, more detail in the distance, and a smoother picture. A stronger PC also lets you use a sharper 1440p or high-refresh screen.
