Everybody can answer this question [;)]

From the product page:

Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
OS: Windows Windows 8, Windows 10
Processor: 1.5 GHZ
Memory: 2 GB RAM
Graphics: 8MB video memory, 1280x768 or higher resolution

I have W7 and the game won't run for me, but they didn't say it was because of W7. They asked me to try some Microsoft solutions but so far I have not tried. So maybe they intend it to run on W7.

It should run on win7 with the upcoming new installer (should be there tomorrow) that includes some DLL installs that were missing on your computer.

best wishes,
Vic

It should run on win7. Mac I can give no promises as it is really unsupported platform.

Hi Terminator, Thanks for your reply. I like my Windows 7 and don't want to upgrade to W10 hence trying to find out if it will run on Windows7.

Hi Eddieballgame, Thanks for info about Shadow Empire and Windows 7. I can't seem to get a definate answer re Ardennes and Windows 7 so will possibly go for Shadow Empire - pity as I was going to go for both.
