For anyone searching "Japanese Ramen Simulator specs": the Steam store lists official minimum and recommended requirements. Values below match the store as of 2026-10-10.

Engine

“The Unreal Engine logo appears on the end card of the official announcement trailer; the store description does not name the engine.”

Windows-only — no native macOS or Linux client. Requires a 64-bit CPU/OS. Online co-op lists "Broadband Internet connection" under minimum requirements.

No official Steam Deck badge as of 2026-10-10. Pair store reviews with the worth-it page if you are on the fence.

Interior: placing equipment, decor and your own designs

"Ramen shop interior design" is the least contested keyword cluster on this hub, and the official store copy spells out exactly how much of the shop you can arrange.

Official store copy

“Place cooking equipment, furniture, storage, and decorations to arrange everything from the kitchen to the dining area your way.”

OBSERVEDPre-launch creator preview observation — retail may differ; prefer in-game checks and the changelog.

On top of free-form placement, the Custom Design feature lets you draw on posters and noren curtains, and the store pitches both play styles: "Build an efficient restaurant that can serve a crowd or a distinctive shop made for screenshots."

Official copy also mentions visiting a friend’s shop and leaving your autograph, plus "unusual fixtures, including toilets". Pre-launch creator preview footage showed green / red placement highlights — the retail UI may have changed in patches.

Still unannounced: placeable object caps, hard income numbers for floor flow, floor extensions, and design sharing. For placement ideas use the layout planner and customization guide.

Part-time staff: hiring your way to a solo shop

Searches for "ramen simulator hire staff" are really asking one question — can this game be played alone? The answer is an explicit yes from the developer.

Official store copy

“Hire part-time staff to run the shop solo at your own pace.”

OBSERVEDPre-launch creator preview observation — retail may differ; prefer in-game checks and the changelog.

That line sits in the store description verbatim, and the Steam feature list carries Single-player alongside Co-op and Online Co-op. Day 1 patch v0.1.48.17626 added dish-clearing staff for plates, trays and empty bottles.

Not published yet: staff cap, wages, hiring cost, AI competence, role assignment, shifts or firing. Preview-based notes live in the hiring guide and may differ from your build.

Rice bowls and side dishes: gyoza, chashu bowls, beer

If you are searching for what you can serve besides ramen, the official copy names rice bowls, gyoza and beer as the supporting menu.

Official store copy

“Top rice bowls with ramen ingredients to create dishes such as chashu rice bowls.”

The same paragraph reads "Cook gyoza and rice bowls", "Watch the browning on your gyoza" and "find the right balance of beer and foam" — so rice bowls are built from leftover ramen toppings rather than being a separate kitchen.

After Early Access launch we still avoid unverified price, cost and order-rate tables on this wiki — use the side-dishes guide and your save for specifics.
