Need game recommendations for my potato PC.

In addition to Stardew Valley, I'd suggest Into The Breach (from your wishlist). Both should run just fine on most PCs.

I enjoyed Stardew Valley. I squeezed 104 hours out of it, but it became somewhat grindy after about 60 hours (for me). If you're into micromanaging, crafting, farming and such, it's a great game. There's plenty to do, with plenty of interaction with the townspeople, and numerous "quests." I haven't played Into the Breach yet, so I can't say much other than I'm definitely looking for a decent sale on it later today.

I would name FTL: Faster Than Light , Spacechem, Terraria and Risk of rain←all in your game list.
And Rimworld , Caves of qud , Unepic , One way heroics , Crypt of the NecroDancer in addition.
Stardew Valley is really nice for me, while some of my friends feel boring after several hours,
PS.as I know,most VN can run perfectly on potatoes XD have a try?

Probably, the game displayed in the list by search works as it is.

By the way, "Terraria" and "FTL" are proposed by other people.
I also recommend it.

The game of 2D depiction will not have any problem.
Let's avoid "3D heavy" games with poor review ratings for 3D portrayal games.

It's an Intel 3570K with 8GB of RAM.

I think we have a different view of what potato means.

I just installed windows 7 on a machine with 1GB DDR1 RAM, with a dual core processor of 2.0.

Try some old games. There are a lot of them that can give you hours of fun. but wait first till winter sale.

Get Sundered that it's cheap now. I don't know how much it could be on the sale.

Guys, if I enjoy sims 4 will I also enjoy stardew valley?

Intel 3570K

Only 25% off for stardew valley. WTF man?

I think I might grab borderlands pre sequel. Need to redownload borderlands 2 and see how it runs on my potato first.

epic battle fantasy 4
anyways follow what Nyalotha said
"Try some old games. There are a lot of them that can give you hours of fun. but wait first till winter sale."

If you had a graphic card you would be able to run anything from your wishlist on a PC like this... An i5 and 8 gb RAM is far from a potato really. It's about what I have. So you probably should be able to run anything pre-2015 on it + stuff like Stardew Valley, Invisible Inc, Into the Breach etc.

From your wishlist ?

Into the Breach will definitely run on a potato, and it's my personal Game of the Year for this year.
Shadow of Mordor also runs surprisingly well on lower-end machines - but I'm not sure how well that runs without a GPU.
Invisible Inc also doesn't have very high requirements, and it's also a turn-based game which makes perfectly smooth framerate less important.

It's not on your wishlist, but I think we have similar tastes, so I can recommend Card City NIghts 1 and 2. They're cute little addictive strategy games. Both provided hours of fun and worked on my laptop.

Stardew Valley is an excellent game. If you play it and like it, I also recommend Graveyard Keeper, which is a similar game with a more offbeat profession and a darkly humorous setting.

Card Hunter is excellent if you like strategy RPGs. While it's FTP, it mostly makes its money from selling cosmetics and optional side-levels; the main campaign is something like 20 hours long and very fun, plus there's a huge number of free "puzzle" levels contributed by users and a random dungeon.

Caves of Qud is excellent if you like roguelikes and weird Dune / Book of the Long Sun-style sci-fi settings.

BYTEPATH is Asteroids crossed with Path of Exile's passive perk tree. That's literally all there is to it, but it's fun and cheap if that sounds like your sort of thing.

Streets of Rogue is an incredibly fun overhead stealth-shootey sort of thing if you want procedurally-generated urban mayhem.

CrossCode is an amazing throwback to old SNES-era action-RPGs, especially Seiken Densetsu 3 / Secret of Mana 2.

Battle Chef Brigade is a fun combination of puzzle and action games.

Moekuri: Adorable + Tactical SRPG has potato graphics but is a really solid strategy-RPG with a lot of depth in terms of team composition and how your summons' powers interact.

Return of the Obra Dinn is a really, really good mystery game.

Since when is a 3570K a potato? My PC setup bar the GPU and SSD isn't even from this decade :(

Well, I just spent the bulk of my steam wallet on the AK Cartel MW, M4A4 Magnesium FN and some other smaller skins for CSGO.

Oh well......

Slay the Spire, it's really fun ! 👍

enter the gungeon also i agree with Khatulistiwa about StS it's really fun
