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 8 GB of memory for Romestead; 16 GB recommended.
An 8 GB Mac is tight; 16 GB is more comfortable.
Allow about 2 GB for the game and another 5 GB for Uncork and Steam (their size in our fresh-install check in October 2026).
Romestead uses DirectX 11: Uncork renders it with D3DMetal.

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