Can't test the game with the demo. Can my computer run it?

I have MacBook Retina Pro with:

Processor: 2.7 Ghz Intel Core i7
Memory: 16 GB memory MHz DDR3
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000 512 MB

The system requirement says that I need a 1000MB graphic card (or something like that) Is mine enough?

Are you trying to run it on OS X or on Windows (with bootcamp)?
The demo isn't available for OS X.

If it's on Windows it should run, even with the Intel card (3rd generation HD graphics is pretty decent, actually).

I have an intel 3000. Just tested it with the systemrequirementslab there, and they said due to the lack of dedicated video ram, I wouldn't be able to run it. Apparently it requires
512mb and all I have is 60mb. Further research suggests that the shared memory should cover it, but is this reliable?

You'll run it just fine - We've had several reports of Macbooks with HD4000 run the game just fine. It won't be a gorgeous and flaming fast experience, but it will run.

I have an intel 3000. Just tested it with the systemrequirementslab there, and they said due to the lack of dedicated video ram, I wouldn't be able to run it. Apparently it requires
512mb and all I have is 60mb. Further research suggests that the shared memory should cover it, but is this reliable?

Yes. HD3000 will also run the game. And the research is correct - The Macbook intel chips (on laptops) get all of their RAM on the fly from your System RAM.
