ReStory Platforms, Controller Support, and Steam Deck Status
The verified platform baseline without an invented key-binding table or outdated performance promise.
Table of contents
ReStory: Chill Electronics Repairs launched for Windows and Apple-silicon Mac. The store lists partial controller support, and the launch FAQ described the Steam Deck version as Playable, not fully Verified.
Supported platforms
| Platform | Published support |
|---|---|
| Windows | Windows 10 x64 minimum |
| macOS | macOS 14 or newer on Apple M1 or later |
| Linux | No native Linux version listed |
| Steam Deck | Playable at launch; not fully Verified in the launch FAQ |
| Controller | Partial controller support |
“Partial controller support” means you should not assume every setup, menu, or text-entry step can be completed without another input method. ReStory uses precise object rotation, zoom, small screws, layered parts, and an in-game computer, so keep a mouse/trackpad option available if your controller layout becomes awkward.
Windows minimum requirements
- 64-bit Windows 10
- 2-core / 4-thread CPU
- 4 GB RAM
- GeForce GTX 750 Ti-class graphics
- DirectX 11
- 1 GB available storage
macOS minimum requirements
- macOS 14 or newer
- Apple M1 processor
- 8 GB RAM
- Apple integrated M1 graphics
- 1 GB available storage
Steam Deck expectations
The official pre-launch FAQ used Valve's Playable label and explicitly said full verification was still work in progress. That is the safest current baseline. Older demo impressions reported both successful play and some fiddly small-part interaction, but those measurements predate the finished release and should not be treated as a current performance guarantee.
For a smoother handheld start:
- Keep the trackpad available for small screws and precise components.
- Use zoom before trying to select a tiny fastener.
- Test the in-game computer and any text-entry flow before relying on a controller-only session.
- Treat community layouts as personal configurations, not official defaults.
What this page does not claim
No current authoritative default key-binding table was available during verification, so this guide does not invent keyboard, mouse, or controller buttons. Check the current in-game settings for the bindings installed with your build.
Once the game is running, start with the Beginner Guide or keep the Repair Loop beside the workbench.
