I’m going on an 8 hour road trip in a few days and i wanted to know what games you all like to play that don’t consume a lot of power to conserve battery life. Any steam games or even emulated games are welcome

Pretty much anything before and including PS1, emulation wise. Probably up to Dreamcast with maybe a 1W bump.
Fallout: New Vegas at 30fps. Likely other PC native 360/PS3 era games can run at 720p with a similar framerate.
VNs like Phoenix Wright, Clannad and Hatoful Boyfriend for extreme power saving (3W TDP, sub-30fps cap).
Outrun 2006: Coast 2 Coast. Likely a lot of games from pre-2010 run on a minimal TDP, even 3D (well, not Crysis) even a lot of lighter modern 3D games like Lunacid and Offroad Mania work quite nicely at 4W.
Alternatively: try the games you already play with a 3W TDP cap, and see how it feels. unless you’re exclusively into incredibly audacious 3D games, of course (ie. Forza, Cyberpunk, RDR2)
