RE: Matrix games on Windows tablets & phones

I've got hybrid tablet ( = tablet with detachable keyboard) with Win8.1, 10" display with 1366x768 resolution and 1,46 GHz Atom processor. Heaviest games (for the hardware) I have tested are Pandora and Age of Wonders 3. Both work reasonably well with native resolution and minimal graphical detail. However becouse both games require right-clicking to move units around, 2-button mouse is a must have to play them. If those games can be configured to receive those commands by left-click, please tell me about it. In addition Pandora doesn't handle stylus well.
Battle for Wesnoth works perfectly with stylus alone. Game has right-click menu, but all its functions can be accessed from top menu bar.
[edit]
I want to clarify that AoW3 does not run smoothly and could be too much to handle for 1,33 GHz Atom unless resolution is reduced. Likewise I make guess that full HD resolution (1920x1080) could be too much for 1,46 GHz Atom. Recommended desktop processor for that game is 2,4 GHz Core 2 Duo. Pandora is easier for the hardware and will likely work on 1,33 GHz Atom as well.
