So i have a low end rufurbished office pc with windows 10, 8 gb of ram, 64 bit, a descent amount of storage (not really though) and an nividia 1030 grahics card but its pretty oudated and most pcs are way too pricey today.
are there any good free games or thingys for a low end pc? also here are some things i like playing and such.
open world
rpg
mmorpg
text based
retro
indie
unique or interesting
visaul novels?
addventure
multi-choices
rogulike
soulslike
fps
(sometimes nsfw games becasue i find them diffrent and unique and please dont get the wrong ideas)
also it would hlep if the game wasetn AAA or takes up alot of space but feel free to suggest whatever you like playing i guess?
You could use system requirements lab website to see what games you can play with your specific computer. Instead of knowing what games you want to play but don’t know if they will work you will instead have a list of games you know will likely work and can pick from those.
Minetest is a decent MC clone, open source and whatnot. There’s also a few mods out there that tries to replicate it. (inb4 someone says minetest is an engine and not a game)
I hate Epic launcher but if you can get weekly free games from epic store.
Someone else said Vampire Survivors, the game I like a lot recently is 20 Minutes Until Dawn. Lots of guns, upgrades, and characters to have fun with.
Guild Wars 2, has free to play tier, and no monthly sub if you buy. Definitely a dank game and I ran it for years and years on a piece of SHIT laptop from 2013-2014
Roguelikes:
- Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup (http://crawl.akrasiac.org:8080/)
- DRL (https://drl.chaosforge.org/)
Oldschool Runescape
If you really wanted to, you could play Valorant with your setup, specially using competitive settings.
But if instead you want to keep your sanity, games like:
-
The Binding of Isaac
-
RuneScape (and Old-School RuneScape)
-
Tunic
-
Cassette Beasts
-
Baba is You
-
Peglin (huh my phone’s autocorrect had a different idea about this word)
-
Vampire Survivors
-
Brotato
-
RetroArch to emulate most GameCube or older titles.
-
Kingdoms of Amalur
Should all run and give you lots of fun.
Editing because I remembered more:
- The Ace Attorney Trilogy
- Danganronpa
- Slay The Spire
- Hades
- Celeste
Ill look into them but im wondering which one to start with.
What are you feeling like currently? Do you want a game to casually open up, play a round, leave… Or do you want to me immersed in a world with beginning and an ending?
Just mess around and have fun maybe something with a beginning or some sort of end goal, something that isint ragey to say you know somehting i can play casually for fun at random times.
Personally I highly recommend Old School RuneScape for that

Have you tried interactive fiction (text adventures)?
There’s a yearly competition (https://ifcomp.org), the winners of the last 27 years should keep you busy for a while. They come in various file formats you will need players for, but some have a “play online” function.
Great roguelike “Shattered Pixel Dungeon”
This is a free (as in freedom) game, I’ve done dozens of runs, there was enough depth and graphics are pixel art. Available for computers, phones, whatever
I also have this problem so I’ll suggest some games I like to play. They’re not free unless you’re up for piracy.
Disco elysium (visual novel esque, unique and interesting, multiple choices, indie) - incredibly well written game with lots of dialogue and heavy political themes
Morrowind (open world, RPG, multiple choices, retro I guess) - oldest elder Scrolls game but maybe the best in terms of lore and freedom in game mechanics
Oblivion - same as morrowind but imo not as good
Factorio (indie) - if you like this kind of game you’ll never need another game suggestion because you’ll be too busy playing fsctorio
Rimworld (indie) - as addictive as factorio
Bit of a different genre, but I’ll throw HoloCure in here.
Highly suggest SIGNALIS
It follows the style of slient Hill and the original resident evil 1 and 2 with its own unique storyline if you are into survival horror
I would suggest giving a look at Crosscode, Katana Zero and Hotline Miami 1 and 2. They are some of my favorite games. Katana Zero and the Hotline Miamis are shorter, story focused games, while crosscode is longer, with side quests and puzzles.
Crosscode
Hi! Lea!
(also they requested free games)
Oh shit I forgot how to read
The ones that come to my mind right now are CS2 and Dota 2. They will work with your specs easily I guess
