Not much, if anything.

Browser games, probably some older games(before/around 2007) left for dead, counter strike 1.6 and source possibly(probably wont run well if they do), Minecraft and some 8-bit titles. Could probably emulate some mobile or handheld games but nothing modern, AAA, or even esports will run on that.

Minecraft windows 10 edition can run on legit anything, I have a simillar laptop that runs it  at full settings.

there is browsing games and you can try roblox on the lowest graphical setting, but otherwise i don't know what to reccomend...

(Edit) actually there are many games on the microsoft store such as airboune ashphalt 8 or the new one... ashphalt legends 9??

If you can't even play browser games then your SOL. I'd go to gamestop or something and pick up some $5 Xbox360 games that would be a much smoother experience then trying to get anything to run on that laptop.

plenty of 2D games you could play, i've sunk hundreds of hours into FTL and stardew valley and you could look into emulation 16bit stuff will run on literally anything.

Older MMOs like Dungeons and Dragons, Lord of the Rings Online run pretty decent, Battlefield 1942, Vietnam and Battlefield 2 at low settings, I have the same GPU in my T400 Thinkpad from 2008. Your limitation however might be also ram, with 2 GB you will have a hard time sharing that with the onboard graphics. For multiplayer there is classic an totally free game called Warzone 2100, it's an RTS and also has bots if you are into that. The Sims 2 would probably work, Sim City 3 as well, older need for speed titles may run but I haven't checked. Age of Empires 1 and 2 of course, C&C Red Alert 2 also runs, Earth 2150 works but under Windows 10 sometimes won't start in general. Also just found a list that someone postet

Hill climb racing is a fun game you can play through the microsoft store,

Btw: do hillclimb racing not hill climb racing 2 as 2 requires some kind of internet

Both FTL and stardew valley are both fairly cheap, check out GOG.com too plenty of older games on there that will happily run on your system.

You could turn it into a retro emulator for nes, snes, genesis and n64 games.

Classics. Starcraft, Diablo II, Age of Empires, SimCity

It would also definitely run Syberia 1 and 2, which are games I love and always recommend, but they're a bit niche as far as the genre/gameplay is concerned - simply said, it's not for everyone

You could remove windows and install some form of lightweight Linux, and then get lutris or something going to play games. Might improve performance.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad
