  I think you mean from Windows 95...
  
  Nope, space cadet pinball was from XP.

Factorio. It plays on my 2016 laptop and my steam deck pretty nicely.

Probably 90% of games that are 10+ years old will be playable.
For example search for "metacritic pc games 2013" etc and change the year.
Emulators for any game console from before the 3D era. NES, SNES, and Sega Genesis would all be good candidates. You'll have a ton of good games you can play any time.
Stardew Valley, Morrowind, Republic Commando, Anno 1404, Max Payne 2
Half Life 1
Half Life 1 Opposing Force
The Elder Scrolls III Morrowind
Halo Combat Evolved
Starsector (https://fractalsoftworks.com/)
Uplink: Hacker Elite
KeeperRL
Doom, Quake, Unreal Tournament (the originals) 😋
- loved ut2k4 on my k6-2 500 back in the day, box is still on my shelf, along with fable I
If you're able to get a good internet connection, you could run anything on Geforce Now's list. Not the most optimal gaming experience, but it can be satisfying enough.
To give something more specific I enjoy, try Backpack Hero. It's a roguelike on the easier side, built around making absurd combos.
- I think let's game it out did one of his satisfactory abominations on gforce now, seemed pretty good from the video (could have been someone else like imkibitz/kibitz but iirc it was lgio)
Hollow Knight
