What Ayo the Clown is

The premise, in the publisher's words
Ayo awakens one night to a deafening crash, but not from the storm that roars outside his bedroom window. No… it seems it came from within the room. He stumbles in a stupor to his dog Bo’s bed and finds a mess. The flower pot has been knocked over and the wall is decorated in muddy paw-prints. But Bo is nowhere to be found. Devastated and confused, Ayo charges into the storm to find his favorite canine juggling partner.

What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Dual core CPU 2 GHz, 4 GB RAM and GeForce GT 440 or equivalent. At 4GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 5GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
What it launched against
Ayo the Clown launched on 28 July 2021, within three weeks of The Forgotten City, Death's Door, Black Book and Road 96. It reviewed better than 1 of the 4. It arrived 1 year into the PlayStation 5's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: The Forgotten City, Death's Door, Black Book, Road 96.
