The top 100 list has already been posted, but I thought this article makes some interesting observations on the list.

Overall the variety of games and experiences on that list really show how versatile the deck is, and that people can still have a great time with games that aren't a perfect experience on the deck.

Protondb.com is a much better resource than the Deck Verified system, when you want to see if/how a game runs on the Steam Deck ; not saying the article is wrong, but it seems to be a common misconception to see the Deck Verified badge as a must have for a game to run well.

I use the protondb badges extension deck loader. Quite convenient.

And I've played a small handful of "Verified" games that needed some kind of modification to play 100% correctly (River City Girls, for example, requires an older Proton version to play 100% correctly).
