About

The Missing Link, released in 2021, is an engaging pixel art-style RPG that combines adventure, strategy, and indie charm. Players will find themselves immersed in a vibrant world where they can explore and engage in turn-based battles using a roster of nine playable characters. With over 400 spells, legendary weapons, and a unique demonic relics forging system, this game offers a rich gameplay experience that sets it apart in the indie gaming scene.

For those looking to benchmark The Missing Link, it is designed to be accessible, requiring only an entry-level GPU with a minimum score of around 800. A CPU score of approximately 351 and 8 GB of RAM are also necessary for optimal performance. Most mid-range setups can run the game smoothly, providing a playable FPS even at lower graphics settings, making it ideal for a wide range of gamers looking to experience its captivating mechanics.

If you enjoy indie RPGs that emphasize strategy and exploration, The Missing Link is worth playing. Its positive ratings and engaging gameplay mechanics ensure that it offers a solid experience for fans of the genre, and the unique art style adds to its overall appeal.

Performance profile

Released in November 2021, The Missing Link 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, The Missing Link 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 — The Missing Link 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.
