You only need a few things for a basic game computer:
1. A processor that can execute instructions.
2. Memory to store temporary data.
3. A way to display progress in the game, like a screen.
4. Some way of giving the processor the logic of the game.
5. Some method of user input.
Graphing calculators are low powered computers with a basic operating system that normally takes button input, does math, stores results, and displays it to you. That’s all you need for a game, as long as the calculator has a way of giving it the right code. Many like Ti ones do.
You won’t get anything fancy, but some games are simple and require just a little memory and a relatively small set of instructions.
