The premise, in the publisher's words
As a prospector starting out on a procedurally generated exo-planet, TerraTech is a galactic exploration game where you need to build an empire from the ground up. Design your own fleet of unique vehicles and take them into battle, and you shape your journey the way you want to, researching the technologies you want and allying yourself with various corporations to create a burgeoning fleet in the lawless frontier of space.

What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core2 Duo T7600 @ 2.33GHz or AMD Athlon 64 FX-60 Dual Core, 4 GB RAM and nVidia GeForce 520M or Intel HD 4000. 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 1GB. 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
TerraTech launched on 10 August 2018, within three weeks of Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition, Dead Cells, Divinity: Original Sin II - Definitive Edition and The Messenger. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 5 years into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition, Dead Cells, Divinity: Original Sin II - Definitive Edition, The Messenger.
