Strategies for weak PCs (PC)
Strategy is one of the most popular genres of games, which does not stand still: all the RTS and TBS that have been released in recent years are very demanding and do not work well on weak PCs. That is why fans of the genre have to find strategies that have lower system requirements.
This list contains all the classic and cult strategies that will run on a weak PC or laptop. Not all of them have poor graphics or awkward controls, as many RTS and TBS, despite their appearance, have fairly low system requirements.
