35. Bad Rats

I've tried all of them on this spec:

• Intel Pentium CPU 987 1.50 GHz
• 4 GB RAM
• Intel HD 2000

All of them works fine on my laptop, some of them even can played on higher setting ( ex. Dishonored, Call of Duty Series etc. ).

Note:
(?) = It mean i'm not sure if it can run on your laptop or not.

That's interesting, I thought Rocket League was a graphics intensive game being one of the most new and popular releases.
Also, the fact alone that it can run Telltale The Walking Dead which requires a decent amount of graphics makes it roughly as good as my bulky 4 year old gaming laptop (repaired twice) which currently suffers from overheating, broken monitor and non-functional battery and could barely run that particular game 2 years after purchase.
In other words, I think it's doing quite impressively for a small notebook.

FTL, cheap, shouldn't need much to run it, and you can sink a ton of hours into it.

I have a toaster; I can play Planetship with only slight hiccups when transitioning between areas and when there are a ton of enemies on the screen

VVVVVV

If this weren't enough recommendations for now, here is what I played on my laptop (the ones from 2012 and newer): with one exception

• Botanicula
• Cook, Serve, Delicious - don't mistake it as a casual game, it's hardcore ;D And you can play it in co-op.
• Costume Quest - Okay, it's from 2011, I'll admit ;)
• FTL - Faster Than Light was already mentioned a few times
• Little Inferno
• Monster Loves You!
• Shadowrun Returns - If you like this there is a whole bunch of other Shadowrun games
• Snapshot
• Stardew Valley Yep, a Harvest Moon clone, but a good one : )
• Trine 2 and, if you havn't played it, of course the first Trine
• A Virus named Tom with co-op : )

Hopefully there's something for you!

try out Hero Siege!

Don't Starve

What about old school Serious Sam? First and second encounter? It's also on sale on Steam atm so double bonus :D
Pretty cool shooter game and I think it would run on your potato :)

How about Geoguessr ?

with an Intel Atom Z3375 and 2gb ram i have gotten Gmod and CS:GO to work at at least 30fps. I think you could too.

Outlast on 3gb ram low setting. Game dosent look bad and there is no lag while playing
Bound by Flame - on medium - high with shadows off.

Do I have a potato machine? You should have asked how many potato machines I have.

Well all visual novels should be able to run on a toaster.
As well almost all RPGMaker games should be able to run on half a potato.

Things that I have been able to play on my potato:

Bastion + Transistor: I had some troubles with Transistor but it's not too bad, then are both very great and beautiful games.

Papers, Please: it doesn't grab me as I wish it would, but it's personal opinion. It's still a very unique and interesting game.

Long Live The Queen: if you are into visual novels you really should check this out, the trailer is very accurate. It's fun finding ways to become a tyrant.

Portal: I haven't tried the second game so I'm not sure but the first one run flawlessly in my potato, it deserves the hype in my opinion.

Somewhere Out There: a real gem if you like platformer games, short but pretty fun.

Spec Ops: The Line: I actually haven't played this but I tried the demo and it works fine, I have heard good things about it.

Lots of indie games like Mad Father, Oneshot, To The Moon and point and click adventure games usually don't demand much, many of them are pretty good, you should check them out.

You can play a lot of psp and ps1 (maybe some of ps 2 games too) games

Caveblazers, this is the police, mount and blade, dungeon of the endless, rome: total war, star wars knights of the old republic 1 and 2, civ 3. I'm guessing at least some of those might be too much for you, i was able to play them on a potato, but my potato was somewhat better than yours.
