Police Chief Simulator System Requirements - How to Make Coffee

Police Chief Simulator publishes a minimum Windows tier and nothing else: there is no recommended configuration on the store page, and the minimum list does not include a memory line at all. That gap is the most important thing on this page, because it means a coffee-break-grade PC question cannot be answered from official material.

The published minimum tier

Component	Minimum (as published)
Operating system	Windows (64-bit) 10
Processor	Intel Core i5-3550
Graphics	GeForce GTX 1060
DirectX	Version 11
Storage	9 GB available space
Sound card	DirectX compatible
Memory	Not published

What the requirements do and do not say

• Published: OS, processor, graphics card, DirectX version, storage and sound card
• Not published: a recommended tier, a memory figure, and any frame rate or resolution target

Because the listing publishes one graphics card as its floor without a memory figure, this page will not fill the gap with a typical number. The whole point of a requirements page is to avoid that.

Input and account features

• No controller support tag on the listing
• Steam Cloud tagged for saves
• Steam Achievements and Family Sharing
• Single-player only

There is also no published statement about a pause-and-leave comfort layer, which is worth noting for a game built around long management sessions: no coffee break system exists in the published design, only the planned Bus Cafe previewed on Oct 4, 2026.

How to use a minimum-only requirements list

Treat the published tier as the developer's stated floor rather than a settings recommendation. With 9 GB of storage and a GTX 1060 named, the game is asking for a modern discrete card, and anything above that floor is a judgement call the developer has not documented.

Filling in a minimum-only list

The missing memory line is the one thing a requirements page cannot work around. Every other field the developer publishes has a value: the OS, the processor, the graphics card, the DirectX version and the 9 GB of storage. Memory is simply absent, and so is any recommended tier.

In the meantime the published figures are still usable as a floor: Windows 10 on 64-bit, an i5-3550, a GTX 1060, DirectX 11 and 9 GB of space, with everything above that undocumented. The honest options are to wait for the store page to be updated or to treat the published tier as a floor and size memory generously. What is not an option is inventing a number, because a requirements page that guesses is worse than one that reports a gap. The same principle applies to the input question: no controller tag is published, so no claim is made here about playing with one.
