Digital horror strategy for Steam users

Call of Cthulhu: Prisoner of Ice is a downloadable strategy and simulator title published by Atari. It activates through Steam with an online game code. The ESRB rates it Teen for blood, drug reference and violence. The product is new and delivered digitally.

Check Windows version and Steam access

The game requires Windows 2000 or XP, a 1.7 GHz processor, 512 MB RAM and an AGP graphics card such as a GeForce3. DirectX 9.0 and 1 GB of hard drive space are also needed. A Steam account is mandatory for activation and the code is blocked in several listed countries.

Replaces physical discs for classic PC libraries

This download replaces a boxed copy of the same 2000s horror strategy game. The jump is worth it if you want instant access without optical media and your system meets the recommended 2.5 GHz processor, 1024 MB RAM and GeForce 5700 for smoother play.

Questions about this item

What is included with the online game code and what else is needed to play?

The purchase provides a Steam activation code for Call of Cthulhu: Prisoner of Ice. A Steam account and an internet connection are required to activate and download the game; no physical media is shipped.

Which version of the game should I choose for my system?

Only one edition is offered — model 39052 — so there is no version choice. Verify that your PC meets the minimum or recommended specifications listed for Windows 2000/XP before buying.

Will the 1.7 GHz processor minimum run the game smoothly on a modern PC?

The 1.7 GHz minimum and 2.5 GHz recommended targets are based on Windows 2000/XP era hardware. Any current processor will exceed these figures, so the game should run without CPU bottlenecks on a modern machine.
