No sorry, intel integrated graphics are not supported.

'can you run it' lied to me >Sad
It said it could run amnesia DX

Too bad, i was really looking forward to finally playing a scary survival horror game. Don't find much of them these days :'(

DAMN YOU INTEL!

Playing the free demo is the most accurate way to know.
Also, looking out for the system requirements is easier than cyri.

How, exactly? With cyri, you easily find out how well your system fills the requirements for a game. You pick the game and everything is done for you. Can it get easier than that?

CRYI doesn't have game files to check. It only checks Shader Version and Graphic Memory. Is it really enough?

This game uses OpenGL. Though, that doesn't really make sens for most people.

Last I checked, finding the system requirements yourself often gives less info than cyri.

- Open Google.com
- Type "XXXXXXX sys"
- Google will show it "XXXXXXX system requirements"
- Press down arrow key, and then press enter .
In case it is too hard.
