About

In "The Eternal Cylinder" (2021), players embark on an adventurous journey controlling a herd of charming creatures known as Trebhums. Set in a visually striking alien world, the game combines action and adventure as players navigate procedurally generated landscapes teeming with unique lifeforms. What sets this game apart is the ever-looming threat of the Cylinder, a massive rolling structure that relentlessly crushes anything in its path, enhancing the sense of urgency in exploration and survival.

For those considering the PC performance aspects of "The Eternal Cylinder," the game is relatively accessible, requiring only an entry-level GPU with a minimum score of approximately 5968. To achieve smooth gameplay and decent frame rates, a setup with at least 8 GB of RAM is recommended. Players can expect a satisfactory FPS at lower graphics settings on mid-tier GPUs, making it a viable option for gamers with modest hardware seeking engaging gameplay without overspending on high-end components.

Despite its mixed rating of 58/100, "The Eternal Cylinder" offers a unique blend of exploration and quirky mechanics that can appeal to fans of the action-adventure genre. If you appreciate imaginative worlds and enjoy games that allow for creative problem solving, this title may still be worth considering, especially for those looking for diverse gameplay experiences.

Performance profile

Released in September 2021, The Eternal Cylinder 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.

The Eternal Cylinder is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.

Entry-level hardware target. A GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT reaches 60 FPS at 1080p Medium in The Eternal Cylinder; an RTX 4060 comfortably sustains 1440p Ultra. 4K Ultra 60 FPS needs an RTX 4070 or better.

Storyline

Your Trebhums begin at the bottom of the natural food chain but can mutate and evolve with new physical attributes and abilities by eating a variety of flora and fauna. Discover and adapt dozens of mutations, including new traversal skills like flying and swimming to reach new areas, and new senses to help overcome puzzles, challenges and dangers. Your many Trebhums can each have different mutations, and new mutations don’t replace ones you already have, letting you stack ability sets in dynamic ways. Each mutation will also change the physical look of a Trebhum and stacking these will generate near countless surprising new creature designs which players will be able to organically discover as they explore this unique alien ecosystem.
