About

Planetarian HD, released in 2016, is an emotionally resonant visual novel that invites players into a post-apocalyptic world filled with rich storytelling and poignant themes. Developed by Key, the game intertwines adventure and simulation elements as it follows a robotic girl and her interactions with a human protagonist, showcasing Key's signature narrative style found in classics like CLANNAD and AIR.

For those looking to benchmark their PC performance, Planetarian HD is quite accessible, with a minimum GPU requirement of an entry-level model. Players can expect satisfactory FPS with hardware that produces a score of around 200, making it easy to achieve playable frame rates even on modest setups. This allows gamers to enjoy the title's graphics settings without the need for high-end components, ensuring a smooth experience for most configurations.

Considering its 70/100 rating and its captivating narrative, Planetarian HD is a worthwhile experience for fans of visual novels and adventure games. If you appreciate storytelling that resonates on an emotional level, this title should definitely be on your play list.

Performance profile

Released in July 2016, Planetarian HD sits in the DirectX 11 generation. Comfortable on any modern mid-range GPU at 1440p; even an RTX 3050 or RX 6600 typically delivers 4K60 at High settings.

Simulation titles like Planetarian HD are heavily CPU-dependent — physics, AI and world state dominate the frame budget. Prioritise a CPU with strong single-thread performance and fast RAM over raw GPU power.

Extremely light — Planetarian HD runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.

Storyline

"Why don't you come to the planetarium? The beautiful twinkling of eternity that will never fade, no matter what. All the stars in the sky are waiting for you." It is thirty years after the failure of the Space Colonization Program. Humanity is nearly extinct. A perpetual and deadly Rain falls on the Earth. Men known as "Junkers" plunder goods and artifacts from the ruins of civilization. One such Junker sneaks alone into the most dangerous of all ruins -- a "Sarcophagus City". In the center of this dead city, he discovers a pre-War planetarium. And as he enters he is greeted by Hoshino Yumemi, a companion robot. Without a single shred of doubt, she assumes he is the first customer she's had in 30 years. She attempts to show him the stars at once, but the planetarium projector is broken. Unable to make heads or tails of her conversation, he ends up agreeing to try and repair the projector...
