Yes, I am playing Dredge right now. I am also playing papers please, which is obviously easier with mouse but it works good enough. I am also playing the first Ori game and Tetris sometimes. I played tails of iron too which is great fun.

I got it in September last year. While I am alternating between Death Stranding and Wolfenstein: the new order, I have to say that this fantastic machine has allowed me to play and finish 18 games since September, which is unbelievable for a person with a job and a family with a kid...
Been playing BOTW but also XCOM 2 and the roguelike deckbuilders bundle from Humble Bundle recently. Loving the steamdeck so much.
I am currently playing Red Dead Redemption 2 on my deck, performs well enough (the major concern is the affect to the battery if playing handheld). Keyboard required for first time set-up (virtual keeb didn't work).
Others:
No Man's Sky - endless playability imo and was my go to when I purchased
Planet Zoo - I haven't actually played on deck yet, but I got my desktop setup where I only need to use the mouse, and plan to try the strategy on my deck.
Dofromantik - this is a relaxed puzzle game that is very good on deck
Podman - containerization is a game, and the deck is a Linux computer after all :)
I've been playing Celeste on the Steam Deck. Really good game and its a replay, since previously I had done it on the Switch.
TOTK! Runs great via some of the latest Yuzu updates.
Also Pizza tower and a bit of PGA 2K21 here and there.
I've had my Steam Deck since April of last year. I love it. I love the community that has formed supporting it. The last game I beat on it was Midnight Suns. Since I got my reservation for it in July 2021. I went from about 4 games on Steam. To over 140 games.
It's probably my primary console whenever possible.
I was looking to scratch the FromSoft itch after Elden Ring finally converted me into a lover of those games.
I bought Sekiro on my deck and got crack cocaine addicted to it. Plays GREAT. Also recently finished Celeste on there which is a game I see myself going back to again and again.
Darkest Dungeon 2, TOTK, Everspace 2. Some Time Wasters and Dofromatik when I need something mindless.
I love my SteamDeck! I've been playing ToTK on it lately, and before that was Hi-Fi Rush.
I want a steam deck so badly. In the mean time I’m paying my switch.
But I really want to play disco elysium. I know it’s available for the switch, but it pays terribly compared to the pc.
I payed it on my switch. I think they updated it and made the performance better. It may not be as good, but it was good enough for me. (I actually prefer my switch because the size fits my hands better. )
👋 playing God of War.
I'm currently playing Octopath Traveller 2 and it's running great ! It's also a very fun game. The next game on my list is Outer Wilds.
Hope you enjoy Outer Wilds! It's my all-time favorite game. Just go in as blind as possible and don't be afraid to experiment and explore.
I've only heard good things about this game, and your comment confirms that opinion :) I'm glad that I never looked at any gameplay of it !
I'm here, but I've been playing TotK on switch as of late. I was actually playing Metroid Prime: Remastered on the deck before that.
Just finished Octopath travellers some days ago (not 100%, only the main story without the special boss). Now I'm playing Blasphemous. In the middle the lagacy collection of megaman, the first 3 are done.
Old school RuneScape- don't play this game, it sucks and I have an addiction
Yuzu emulator - playing the Luminescent platinum romhack of BDSP. Having a great time, it's an excellent romhack so far.
Mechabellum - the only good auto chess style game I've played, and it's really good. Doesn't quite run well enough on the deck for my liking so I just stream from my PC in the other room
We Love Katamari
I've been playing Spiritfarer and Forza Horizon 4 on mine as of late.
I love my Steam Deck and use it for smaller indie titles I can play for a short time through the week.
At the moment I play Flood of Light, which works pretty well despite being a game relying heavily on mouse controls.
And as a second: Super Panda Adventure. A surprisingly fun metroidvania.
Casette Beasts is next, already played about an hour, but I want to finish the others first.
Been playing Dinkum lately, great controller support works well on the deck.
Just as a note, there's a couple of Deck communities. I'm on [email protected] and [email protected] at the moment. The one on Sopuli seem to be a bit more active
Currently playing some No Man's Sky. It runs better than I was expecting.
I was playing Showgunners and was really enjoying it but it crashes a lot on the deck. I'm hoping an update fixes it.
Been slowly working my way through Shadow of War, between probably a bit too much Against the Storm, Surviving Mars, Stellaris, and Timberborn.
Warhammer Boltgun, Forza Horizon 4 & Fallout 76.
Boltgun is incredible, best new game I’ve bought this year.
Fallout 76 (don’t judge) is great just to burn some time doing events with randoms and joining public teams.
I’ve really gotten into Forza Horizon 4 again recently and am also playing through that on the Deck.
I’ve added a 1tb SSD to mine so it’s running Windows and Linux meaning I’m pretty much free to play my whole library. Love the thing.
In order of play time on the deck:
- Dead Cells
- Hades
- Katana Zero
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Neon White
I went from a Hades binge which ended when I entered the mid-to-late game grind phase interspersed with bouts of BoI (finally picked up Repetence) and found myself wondering what to do now.
So I figured, hey, maybe it's about time I finally went back and finished Bastion.
Then all of a sudden Street Fighter 6 comes out (which plays incredibly well on the deck) and a new No Man's Sky expedition launches, and now I don't know what to do!
All indies all the time. I have been thoroughly sick of "AAA" games (and the industry itself) since the switch to 3D. Spelunky HD / 2, the new TMNT, Streets of Rage 4, Neuro Voider, Stardew Valley, and on and on. Also old console games because it's always morally okay to emulate games on old consoles. Related, it's always morally okay to pirate Nintendo's games.
Currently playing Death Stranding in between two sessions of Tears of the Kingdom on my Switch !
Right now I'm playing Horizon Zero dawn. runs beautifully. very occasionally crashes but otherwise great.
99% of my Deck gameplay has been Harvest Moon Animal Parade (Wii game) since I got it last fall. Lmao. But I recently got a little chill game called Lemon Cake on sale so I’ve been messing with that. I just want calm games these days, preferably ones I can pick up and put down easily.
Been advancing the story in Trails of Cold Steel II, the sleep function is a bless for these types of games.
I love bloodstained, personally. Runs super well and the game is just a perfect fit for the deck.
It’s also amazing for emulation! Just about any traditional-controller game works like a charm. I’m going back and revisiting so many of the old GameCube and gameboy games
I'm working through Persona 4. It runs like a dream!
