Old games (early 2000s) do very well on these things (I have a N100 unit, which is marginally slower than the N200) - look up Unreal Tournament 2004, Knights of the Old Republic 1 and 2, Warcraft 2 and 3, original StarCraft, the list goes on.

I tell all my friends this.
Play Knights of the old republic 1&2.
One of the best RPGs of all time imo.

It's a powerful CPU kneecapped by single channel memory. You could play a lot of games on it and emulate almost every console up to the Wii-U, but you will run into slowdowns and stutter issues. Any PC game released up to 2012 will run acceptably, at very low resolution and with some slowdowns and stutters, but still somewhat playable. If you want to run games newer than 2006 or so, you might want to try upgrading the RAM to 8GB at least, the CPU benefits a lot from fast RAM.

Ok. We're talking about a 12th Generation Intel Alder Lake CPU, with no performance cores and 4 of the 8 efficiency cores enabled, at a very good frequency of 3.7GHz, without HyperThreading. This processor can be compared to the Core i7-6700HQ or the Core i5-8250U. In terms of integrated graphics, there is the 12th Generation Iris Xe Graphics, with revised architecture and 32 of the 96 cores enabled, at a frequency of up to 750MHz. Fully compatible with DirectX12 (not Ultimate) and Vulkan, which is excellent for optimizing gaming performance.
Having only 4GB RAM is the main limitation in this case, since the notebook has only one stick, not soldered (in the best case scenario). An upgrade to 8 or 16GB would be ideal. Until that happens, fortunately there are games and emulators that are not very demanding on the total available RAM.
As main examples, I would suggest: Batman Arkham (Origins and Asylum), Half Life (1 and 2), any of the Naruto games (except Storm 2 and 4, and also including the emulated PS2 ones, which are very light), almost any Dragon Ball game, Call of Duty (Black Ops or older), Battlefield 2 (or older), Need for Speed (Rivals or older), and the classic Counter Strike 1.6. In terms of emulated games, any console prior to the PS2 (and for the latter, you can still run very good games, but you will need to adjust your emulator well).

Check older versions of Doom. They support software rendering options. I know because I had to change that when I had it accidently abled and a mod was not working properly because of it.

I had an intel celeron n4500 and intel uhd in the past with 4gb ram on win10. Here some of the games i played from light to heaviest ones to run (with the system)...
Note: i played Everything at playable fps [24fps and above]
-All of Danganronpa series
-Dark souls 1-2
-bayonetta 1
-DMC4
-Metro(i played 2-3 of them. Last one being that part with the nuke, i think)
-Borderlands 1 and 2
-God of war 1(emulator)
-Tombbraider 2012( 1080p medium at 30-45fps, believe it or not)
-Assasins creed 1 to Black flag [Surprisingly playable at 720p lowest on the newer ones]
-far cry 2 and 3
-Wolfenstein 1 up to old blood( i think, but to the part where the game begins with the mc waking up in a hospital)
-COD 1 to Cod Black ops1
-gta4(with tweaks)
With a quick google search, the n200 is a bit faster than the n4500 so i guess your system would perform better. Happy gaming

Binding of issac maybe? Most rpgm games.. they're surprisingly good. The 999 series of visual novels are quite good.
