For new releases (Cyberpunk 2077), you need a PC with an RTX 3060+ graphics card, 16 GB of RAM and an i5/Ryzen 5 processor. Light games (Among Us) run on weak systems. Cloud services like GeForce Now allow you to play without top-end hardware.
Games are safe with supervision. Choose games with a PEGI rating of 3–7 (Minecraft, Roblox). Limit time and purchases through parental controls. Check content to avoid aggressive games. Playing with children helps.
Yes, many games work offline: The Witcher 3, Hollow Knight, Portal 2. They do not require the Internet after installation. Multiplayer games (Dota 2) or with updates require the network. Offline games are good for single-player play.
Multiplayer is available in Valorant, Fortnite, Among Us and Overwatch 2. They support co-op or PvP for 2–100 players. A stable Internet connection is required. Such games enhance sociality and excitement, and are suitable for playing with friends.
Look for discounts on Steam, Epic Games Store, or Humble Bundle. Free games: Warframe, Path of Exile. Read reviews to choose quality projects. Paid indie games like Hollow Knight often cost up to $20 and provide a great experience.
Strategy games (StarCraft II) develop planning, shooters (CS2) - reaction, puzzles (Portal 2) - logic. Cooperative games (Among Us) teach teamwork. Moderate your time so that skills like multitasking are useful.
