pillars of eternity, great game so far, did not play a realtime-with-pause rpg since kotor, but thanks to the auto-pause settings this plays really well. And while i can’t claim to understand whats going on right now, the world seems to be really fleshed out and combats so far where very fun.

brotato, fun take on the vampires survivor formular.

backpack battles, an autobattler, but players don’t draft from a shared pool, so you’ll mostly draft the same builds everytime and don’t care much about the builds you are dacing. not somerhing i’ll continue playing, but it was ok to waste a bit of time, would probably be cool on mobile.

doom2, but i am allways playing doom, so i guess that does not count.

apex legends works. the finals does not, because of their anti-cheat solution.

for multi-player fps games remember that you’ll play against pc players, they’ll have keyboard and mouse and you won’t have assistance features you might be used to from console fps. Experiment with gyro controls, the touchpads and/or “flick stick” you’ll might find a way to get similar speed and accuracy as a mouse user, but i’d guess you are in for an uphill battle.

have a look at the control schemes provided by the community for games, if you don’t like the default controls.

my competitive fps days are in the past, but i can recommend some single player fps i enjoyed on the deck:

• Doom (2016)
• Black Mesa, the half-life 1 remake.
• Amid Evil
• Boltgun
• Borderlands 2

e: www.protondb.com to check how various games work on the deck. some games are not “verified” by valve because they only show xbox button prompts, or some “unplayable” games run perfectly fine with a specific launch options

No, it just means that it’ll run through proton without tweaks, show proper controller glyphs and default to graphic settings, that lead to playable frame rates.

Just finished my first playthrough of baldurs gate 3, so another playthrough of bg3 after i decided on some mods to keep me on my toes during combat encounters. Or i delve into the old infinity engine games (baldurs gate, icewind dale etc.) That i never really played because kid me did not understand them.

Ember Knights is a rogue lite heavily inspired by the gameplay of hades. Supports up to 4 players.

Plate Up is somewhat simmiliar to overcooked, but is more about process optimisation and not about dealing with the oddities of a stage.

Most lego games also offer local coop and are good fun.

30xx is a roguelite with gameplay simmiliar to MegaMan X that can be played by 2 players.

Towerfall Ascension is also worth a look.

Hell Divers is also a great game, but it had sound issues(strange echoes of some enemy sounds) last time i tried.
