What your Mac needs
You need a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or newer): Uncork does not run on Intel Macs.
Steam requirements list at least 1.024 GB of memory for Forager.
Any Apple Silicon Mac has enough memory for the listed minimum.
Allow about 0.2 GB for the game and another 5 GB for Uncork and Steam (their size in our fresh-install check in October 2026).

What we have not tested
We haven’t run Forager ourselves, so we don’t know the frame rate on your Mac and how controllers will work.
