Help me choose which game to purchase

[Ya_Mi]

Hello community, as i am still recovering from a broken femur, i can't go nowhere and besides i have no motorcycle anymore since it was trashed during the accident along with my gaming laptop.

 

So i am kinda bored at home and want to play a game that could take me on a journey.
I have a low-end computer running i3 4160, 4GB RAM, and NVIDIA GT 720 2GB. I am also on the budget so i can only afford one game from the list below, and i am gonna use DATA to download the game because i don't have Wi-Fi at home.

 

So please help me choose one that would run atleast 30FPS on my system.

 

-What Remains Of Edith Finch

-The Long Dark

-Everybody's Gone To The Rapture

-Kona

-The Vanishing Of Ethan Carter

-Dear Esther

-Call Of The Sea

 

Thank you in advance

The long dark is a great time sink  does the whole survival thriller plot well

If you want to test how video games may run on your system, can I recommend game debate which has a can you run it section? You put in your specs on the game page, so for example, I put your game and your specs into the site and it comes back with how it would run, using some very complicated maths.

-What Remains Of Edith Finch

Very nice experience, though it is short and won't run 30fps on GT 720 gpu.

 

Actually every game on the list is beyond GT 720.

 

I would like to add a suggestion - Mindustry.

Very simple graphics, yet addictive. Not sure if even that runs flawlessly, but it's a free game (or $5€ in Steam)  so can at least test if it runs.

Game debate isn't really accurate AFAIK and from my experience, but I'll try it again incase they updated their website.

Vanishing of Ethan Carter is a very nice game but it's a 2-3h complete walkthrough.

Long Dark was free on Epic a while ago, so maybe you or someone from your close friends already owns it. Am currently playing through this one myself (story mode) and I'd say it's a good game, but not really the 'journey' type.

Everybody's Gone to the Rapture is apparently reeeally short as well.

As for the other ones I have no idea.

 

What do you think about adding Return of the Obra Dinn to the list of potential candidates?
