Anyone knows of any good dungeon crawler or 2D games in general for low spec PCs?
One of my favourites was Dungeon Souls. tried Overture, Princess.Loot.Pixel.Again and Earth Overclocked. Those 3 were OK I guess.
Bought Risk of Rain and Hammerwatch 2 days ago. Both were good ones, but not too cool.

Loved survival games similar to Terraria year ago, but when I bought Crea (a week ago), I realised I no longer have liking in those types of games.

So... can anyone suggest me some really good 2D/dungeon games? Dungeon Souls gave me 10 hours of ultimate fun, and I can't find games to make me feel the same.

Just started playing Questr. So far, so good. Similar to Reigns but with a few more options. You might also be interested in Boss Monster.

Questr looks interesting;
Has very few reviews, but price is low at least. Will give it a shot.

Tomb of Tyrants - Tertris meets Dungeon Keeper
Death's Hangover - pong with crazy story
Undertale - unique RPG on so many levels
Another World - classic
Wizorb - another pong with RPG elements
Gunpoint - stealthy brain-teaster, awesome jazzy sountrack
10000000 - match 3 game
We Must Build a Boat - second part of above,
Hack, Slash, Loot - my first 100% achievement roguelike
Hotline Miami 1 and 2 - like good old GTA, but without cars and with great sountrack.

I hope this helped.

I think no one suggested Lisa the Painful, it's a great game. Also Hotline Miami games are really good. And if you like metroidvania genre, you should check Hollow Knight.

FTL goes on sale often, for around $2 so it's a great deal.
I'd also back Dungeon of the Endless though it's kinda hard dungeon crawler.
Gunpoint is an amazing short little game, not a dungeon crawler.

I even have it in my library, but when I went through this library for recommendations I had to realize that I still haven't found the muse and time to actually play it. I have no idea how much I have missed out on there...

Try it, it's cute on it's own (for me at least)
but it's not recommended for anyone with nyctophobia or environmental puzzle

So you think I should make time for it? How much time will I likely need for a playthrough? I was a J'n'R / platformer regular back in the days and have played Trine (which seems somewhat similar except it's brightfully colored), so we can assume that I won't take too long for the puzzling stuff ;)

well... my playtime is 9 hours in total, that include my countless attempt of certain pain in the ass achievement

so it wouldn't take much time, 3-4 hours might enough if You like this type of game

I'm gonna second someone's suggestion on Stardew Valley. The graphics were ok to me at first, but they grow on you. The content is also surprisingly long for a $15 game made by 1 person.

I don't know if these are 2D or not, and they certainly aren't Dungeon Crawlers, but they did run on XP & do run on Win 7 (256 mb ram & 4GB respectively) without a GPU in either case--we just had the integrated chips on the low-end machines. They can run on basically anything.

Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale (and probably the rest of the Carpe Fulgur collection though I can only speak for Recettear from person experience) sound like they would fit what you're looking for. They go on sale pretty often so it's easy to get them cheap.

The Binding of Isaac (or probably better- its remake) has pretty low requirements if you're looking for something less anime (and more annoying with it's obnoxious levels of useless item RNG). Similarly- Enter the Gungeon (though I haven't personally played that one).

Legend of Grimrock maybe?
The Bard's Tale is also really good though it's more of a standard RPG than a Dungeon Crawler.
Also I guess Dungeons of Dredmor though, again, I haven't played it much to give a strong opinion about it.

I can think of a lot more good 2D games with old-school graphics (and thus low requirements) but that would take too long so I tried to limit myself to the Dungeon Crawlers. ^_^'

I got an email earlier this week that The Curse of Yendor is on sale. 2D rouge-like, if that's your thing. I think I saw some dungeons in the screenshots

One of my all time favorites, been playing previous iterations of it (Space Rangers 2, Space Rangers 2: Reboot) since 2007, it's one of those games that has several genres combined within it (open world RPG, RTS, text quests), but unlike most other games, this one does it well, and has amazing replayability.

Fallout 2 is one of the best game ever. I always recommend it for lots of hours of low-end gaming fun.
Also, this one is pretty low-end :)
