About

Pretend, released in 2021, is a casual and engaging multiplayer game that blends elements from Among Us and classic party games like Mafia and Werewolf. In this social deduction game, players work together while trying to identify impostors among them, creating an atmosphere of deceit and survival. Featuring support for 4-15 players, Pretend thrives on teamwork and discussion, making it a captivating choice for those who enjoy strategy and interaction.

In terms of PC performance, Pretend is an accessible game that can run well even on entry-level hardware. With a minimum GPU requirement of around 600 points for optimal FPS, players can expect smooth gameplay even on budget setups. The game requires only 1 GB of RAM, making it suitable for a wide range of systems, so whether you opt for low graphics settings or push for higher frame rates, you’ll find that performance is not a significant hurdle.

If you enjoy social deduction games and are looking for a fun, free-to-play title, Pretend comes highly recommended. Its friendly community and engaging gameplay mechanics have garnered positive feedback, making it a worthwhile addition to your gaming library.

Performance profile

Released in January 2021, Pretend targets RTX 20/30-series and RX 6000-era hardware. A current mid-range GPU (RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT) is the sweet spot for 1440p Ultra; 4K needs a high-end card.

As a strategy title, Pretend is typically CPU-bound rather than GPU-bound — single-thread CPU performance dictates framerate during large-scale battles, end-game saves and late-game AI turns. A fast modern 6-core will help more than a GPU upgrade.

Extremely light — Pretend 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.
