iPad Game Specs? - Older Model Gen 2

Post by Jagosaurus »

Mrs. Jago has an older iPad (Gen 2, 1GHz dual core CPU, 512 MB RAM) I was thinking about playing the original Alone in the Dark on. I found on the interwebs that it required ios 6.1 but couldn't find any technical specifications. This model can go up to iso 9 so not worried about os level, more so the needed hardware to properly run game "x".

For this game & any other, is there a way to know if the game will run?

Way thinking of also finally playing Vay. Never tried that Sega CD RPG.

Thanks in advance! I'm an Android guy but haven't done much mobile gaming period.

Alone in the Dark will probably work OK. If a particular device level is required that will often be specified explicitly in the App Store.

Ok, so if it let's me DL it or doesn't specifically say in details, should be ok?

I know on Android for example, it won't show the higher end games to users on entry level devices.

Apple Store doesn't filter at that level.
