88 keys is not a requirement, but if you want a close-to-real piano feel you probably won't find it in a 76 key model. They usually have synth keys or "light" piano action. I think CME makes a 76 weighted key keyboard but their stuff is so expensive plus it's just a controller so you'd need to connect to the computer or a sound module.

You might look around for used digital pianos. It doesn't have to be fancy.
