About

"The Shattering" (2020) is a captivating first-person, story-driven adventure that plunges players into a psychological thriller set within the unique dreamscape of protagonist John Evans. As players navigate this pristine white aesthetic, they uncover key moments from John’s past while following the guiding voice of the enigmatic 'Doctor.' This indie title stands out for its immersive storytelling and the intricate exploration of the human psyche, making it a notable entry in the adventure genre.

In terms of PC performance, "The Shattering" is relatively accessible, requiring only an entry-level GPU for optimal gameplay. With a minimum graphics score of around 3900, players can expect decent frame rates, averaging 30-60 FPS on mid-range hardware. A minimum of 6 GB RAM is also necessary for smooth performance, allowing gamers to adjust graphics settings according to their hardware capabilities while ensuring an engaging experience without excessive strain.

Considering its 51/100 rating, "The Shattering" may not appeal to everyone, but if you are drawn to narrative-driven experiences with psychological elements, it might be worth your time. The unique gameplay and compelling story might resonate well with fans of adventure and indie games, even if its performance benchmarks indicate modest requirements.

Performance profile

Released in April 2020, The Shattering 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 Shattering 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 Shattering; an RTX 4060 comfortably sustains 1440p Ultra. 4K Ultra 60 FPS needs an RTX 4070 or better.

Storyline

You can’t remember anything. All you see is white around you. You hear a voice. You see a watch, swinging slowly in front of your eyes: “I know you think everything is alright, but tell me, how come you can’t even remember her name?” The Shattering places you in the mind of John Evans, where you struggle to piece together the fragments of your past and present. Not remembering is one thing, but what will happen when your mind leads you down the twisted path of fake memories in order to shelter you from the truth?
