Loop Hero. Best low-spec games for laptops and low-end PCs

Table of Contents

What is Loop Hero?

Loop Hero is a beautiful example of the fact that you don't always need a well-known brand or millions of dollars spent on marketing to make a successful game. Sometimes all you need is an original idea and a little luck. GenreThis is a combination of several genres – roguelike, card game, strategy and RPG – maintained in characteristic pixel art graphics. In the game, we play as a hero tasked with breaking the world out of a time loop imposed by an evil Lich. The gameplay is based on wandering through randomly generated levels and battles with encountered opponents, thanks to which we gain new cards giving us the opportunity to improve the nearby areas (providing various bonuses) or equip our hero with better equipment.

Who is Loop Hero for?

Every roguelike fan who doesn't mind the characteristic graphic design will appreciate what Loop Hero has to offer. The interesting combination of resource management and card game mechanics will appeal to those looking for a something fresh in the genre. Moreover, the fact that Loop Hero is a successful production is evidenced by the fact that the developers have already managed to sell more than half a million copies of their work; a great result for a fairly niche production.

Legends of Runeterra

What is Legends of Runeterra?

This time a proposal for fans of classic card games – Legends of Runeterra. This production is set in the universe known from the game League of Legends. It is an online game, in which players duel each other using previously assembled decks. The gameplay itself is rather standard – every round, players receive increasing mana and use it to play cards (creatures, spells or special heroes). What makes Legends of Runeterra stand out from the rest of the available card games, are the frequent updates, interesting mechanics and heroes taken straight out of the LoL world.

Who is Legends of Runeterra for?

Legends of Runeterra is, at first glance, not a very distinctive card game. However, the creators decided to attract the attention of the players in a different way – by promising an easy way to acquire new cards by eliminating the grind. This actually worked, and we get crates with new cards for our decks extremely often (in addition, we have quite an influence on which region they will come from). Sure, it takes a little extra time to "farm" every available card, but it is without question a very fair and rewarding system. SoLoR is a card game for those who don't want to worry about spending money on sick amounts of card packs, but also for those who just love the League of Legends universe .

Minimum Requirements:

  1. CPU: 3 GHz processor
  2. GPU: Graphics card with 512 MB VRAM
  3. RAM: 4 GB
