I had fun playing it on PC, but the game is just that much more fun and immersive on the Deck. I’d say it’s the first game where I’ve noticed a big difference since I got my Deck last week.

On the other hand, I found Slay the Spire to be better on PC. The controls and smaller screen seem to get in the way a little bit more.

Any other suggestions for games that really shine on the Deck vs PC?

    i too enjoy top-down action games on the deck. I’ve have good results with The Ascent, Hades, and the Hotline Miami games. I think Ruiner will be good but haven’t tried it on the deck yet.

    i also love the retro 2d beat 'em ups like Streets of Rage 4 and TMNT: Shedder’s Revenge. Caveat: while good on the small screen i mainly did both with a group doing using local multiplayer on the TV. And we all used steam controllers because i am among the dozens who love those. put it all together and it’s like having a steam console.
