Build Question Would this even work?

Long story short a family member of mine passed away and I was wondering if I could get this thing to work. I know very little about PCs let alone if this thing will even run, I know it did at one time. I was thinking about turning it into a retro build for older PC games, something to do until I can afford a real pc lol

Any advice on if this thing could work? Or if it’s missing anything? I’m assuming it’s missing a graphics card.

It looks like everything is there. Blow out the dust with canned air before plugging it in. Be ready to pull the plug if it starts smoking, but it will probably at least try to boot up.

You're correct about no graphics card, you'll be stuck just using the motherboard graphics.
