HUMANKIND is a historical strategy game in which you have to rewrite the entire history of mankind and create a unique civilization from elements of different cultures.
Create your unique people by combining 60 historical cultures and control them from ancient times to the present day. Starting the game as a small tribe in the Neolithic era, reach the era of the Ancient World as the Babylonians, then meet the ancient era in the guise of the Mayans, enter the Middle Ages as the Umayyads, write the history of the modern era from the perspective of the British...
| THE GRAFICAL PART |
This subsection of our review highlights the main graphical aspects of this game. Particular attention is paid to the version of the graphics engine used, the version of the API used, graphic settings and the quality of development of the main visual aspects.
| SUPPORTED OS AND GRAPHICS API |
The Humankind is supported Windows 7 / 8 /10
The priority and main graphics API for Humankind is DX11.
| GAME ENGINE |
Humankind runs on the Unity game engine. Unity is a tool for developing 2D and 3D applications and games that runs on operating systems Windows and OS X. Applications created with Unity run on operating systems Windows, OS X, Windows Phone, Android, Apple iOS, Linux, as well as on the Wii, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One game consoles. It is possible to create applications for launching in browsers using a special Unity plug-in (Unity Web Player), as well as using the implementation of WebGL technology. Previously, there was experimental support for the implementation of projects within the Adobe Flash Player module, but later the Unity development team made a difficult decision to abandon this.
Applications built with Unity support DirectX and OpenGL. The engine is actively used by both large developers (Blizzard, EA, QuartSoft, Ubisoft) and developers of Indie games (for example, the remake of Mor. Utopia (Pathologic), Kerbal Space Program, Slender: The Eight Pages, Slender: The Arrival, Surgeon Simulator 2013, Baeklyse Apps: Guess the actor, etc.) due to the availability of a free version, user-friendly interface and ease of working with the engine.
A project in Unity is divided into scenes (levels) - separate files containing their own game worlds with their own set of objects, scenarios, and settings. Scenes can contain both actual objects (models) and empty game objects - objects that do not have a model (“dummy”). Objects, in turn, contain sets of components with which scripts interact. Objects also have a name (in Unity, two or more objects with the same names are allowed), there may be a tag (label) and a layer on which it should be displayed. So, any object on the stage must have a Transform component - it stores the coordinates of the location, rotation and size of the object along all three axes. Objects with visible geometry also have a Mesh Renderer component by default, which makes the object model visible.
In addition to the free one, there are four builds - standard Unity, Unity iOS Pro (for developing games for iOS), Android Pro and a team license. They differ in cost and functionality. The free version has some restrictions, but the ability to distribute games is available, provided that the annual income from the game does not exceed $100. With the release of Unity 000, many of the restrictions of the Free version were removed, but the annual income from the game should still not exceed $5.
| SETTINGS |
Humankind only has a basic range of graphics settings.
Below we have provided screenshots of the game at various graphics settings, where our readers can see the difference between the minimum and maximum graphics quality settings.
| QUALITY MODES |
| TECHNOLOGIES |
The graphics in Humankind are quite acceptable for its genre:
Well, then we will move directly to gaming tests and determine what impact this game has on modern computer hardware.

Our video cards were tested at different screen sizes of 1920x1080, 2560x1600 and 3840x2160 at ultra graphics quality settings by default.
NVIDIA GeForce RTX and GTX video cards are provided by LLC Business Development Center.
| TEST GPU |
In the video card test, the default resolution is 1920x1080; other resolutions are added and removed manually. You can also remove and add any positions of video cards. You can also select any of our test processors from the list in the drop-down menu, comparing its performance with the given video card tests (by default, the most productive solution is selected). The test is performed on the most powerful CPU and is scaled to other processors, taking into account their testing on NVIDIA and AMD video cards.

A comfortable average FPS of 60 frames can be provided by solutions Radeon RX 6800 or GeForce RTX 3070.
| VIDEO MEMORY CONSUMPTION |
Testing of video memory consumed by the game was carried out by the program MSI Afterburner. The indicator was based on the results on video cards from AMD and NVIDIA with separate screen sizes 1920x1080 and 2560x1440 with different anti-aliasing settings. By default, the graph displays the most current solutions. Other video cards are added and removed from the chart at the request of the reader.
