Steam Summer Sale Steam Deck recommendations (lemmy.world)

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 just picked up octopath traveller 2, which seems like a good deck game. I've played a bunch of jrpgs on it.

I haven't actually played it yet though. Still in Diablo 4 (which runs fine on the deck, though it's annoying to install)
