Steam Deck, honestly
The absence of a Deck rating is expected rather than alarming: Valve typically assigns ratings around or after release, and this game is days old. What we can say from the specs is less encouraging than the rating gap. The recommended GPU is an RTX 2060 Super, the minimum is a GTX 1060 6GB, and players are reporting framerate collapse during large battles on desktop hardware well above that.
The colony half — menus, assignment screens, base building — is the part most likely to be legible on a small screen. The bullet-hell half is the part most likely to hurt. If you try it, start at the performance settings that actually matter.
