Hi all, with the Steam sale on I'm looking for new things to play on the deck.

I can kick it off with a few recommendations of my own that I've been playing, even if they aren't new games:

Outer Wilds - Amazing exploration game that is best played without looking at any guides etc. I use the 40hz option to play and it runs great, not dropping below 40fps.

Hades - You've probably heard of this one! Runs perfectly on the deck, easy to just pick up and attempt a run.

TUNIC - A charming RPG in the vein of the old Zelda games, this one is unique in that you find pages of the 'Instruction Manual', which you'll need to read to help you figure out puzzles within the game. It's awesome, would highly recommend on the deck!

Let me know what you're all playing so I can grab some bargains!

I picked up Monster Hunter Rise it's Steam Deck verified and should run a lot better than MH: World!

Been thinking of picking up MH:R so maybe now is the time.

It's great, it's my favorite MH game so far. Great atmosphere and a lot of variation in monsters compared to World. The hunts are also a bit shorter since you know the monsters location from the beginning, and it feels perfect as a mobile game because of it.
