Basically all the classics from yesteryear.. Check GOG for some great vintage games:
Also check out myabandonware.com. Many free legal old games, some of which are great.
Some more "recent" titles:
Also check out anything 3rd party released for Nintendo Switch. Most of those pc counterparts would probably run on a laptop.
If you're into emulating, SNES, GBA and N64 classics can be played.
I think you meant age of empires 2 hd edition. Definitive edition is the recent title which is way harder to run (at least for me)
Hmm interesting. DE is definately the better port, and minimum requirements were an intel 4000 chip, so I figured it would run on most laptops by now.
I guess you could always download the original from Archive.org. you would need to patch some stuff (I recall the water textures not working well on modern hardware) but should still work :)
