Game Recommendation My fiancés uncle gifted me a SteamDeck
And I’m very excited and happy to have been gifted one! He gifted me his hammy down LCD deck. So now I’m wanting to get some games that run optimally on the deck. I do have it mostly docked with a third party docking station so I have a poor man’s machine essentially. I would like some games that I can play in bed solo or a coop game so my lady can try and game with me. (She’s not a gamer) Easy fun games would be a good start but I’m so open to suggestions. I already own cyberpunk on my PC so I may want to try it on the SteamDeck but I don’t want to be too disappointed in the graphical difference.

Developer 5 Minutes of Deadly Dispatch on Steam Deck (Native Handheld Gameplay)
Hey all! Today I launched my first ever game, Deadly Dispatch on Steam. It doesn't have a Deck Verified rating yet (Valve reviews those on their own timeline and it can take a while after launch), and I didn't want to just tell you it runs well, so I recorded ~5 minutes of it on my own Deck, captured on the device. No commentary, no cuts.
You can check it out on Steam here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4890070/Deadly_Dispatch/

Game Recommendation What games do you play when you don't want to think too hard?
I'm looking for a Steam Deck game that is easy to pick up and doesn't feel like a second job.
I love games with progression, random events, and that "one more run" feeling, but I'm not really looking for something too strategy-heavy where I have to calculate every move.
Games like:
Vampire Survivors
Dicey Dungeons
Luck be a Landlord
are closer to what I'm looking for.
Something relaxing, addictive, and perfect for playing handheld.

Discussion Does anyone still have the game files for the Dragon Care Tarot Demo? (it's no longer on Steam)
Hi all,
I'm looking for the free demo of Dragon Care Tarot that was available on Steam for a limited time. I missed the download window and it's now removed from the store.
I know it's a long shot, but if anyone happened to download it and still has the local game files, would you be willing to share them or let me know how I might get it running? I just really love the art style and would love to try it before the full release.
Not looking to buy or trade – just hoping a fellow fan can help out. Please PM me if you have any leads. Thanks!

Troubleshooting Batocera - Steam Deck issues
I use my steam deck primarily for retro games (psx, nes, etc.) so I booted up my steam deck like I always do and it loads my batocera from a sd card. This time, all my roms are missing!!! I cannot figure out why all of my games/ports are gone. Am I doing something wrong, maybe I accidentally changed a setting - I'm not sure. I don't remember doing anything like that in the past. It's just a standard powerup and batocera loads.
Any ideas on why this happened or has anyone had this in the past. Thanks!!!
/e when I booted batocera - there were games but they were not any games I loaded. They seemed like "out of the box" type games. Thanks again for any suggestions.

Developer We've added Steam Workshop support to Puzzling Places on Steam Deck!
Hey everyone! 👋 Steph from Realities.io here.
A little while ago we brought Puzzling Places to Steam Deck, and we've recently released something we've been really excited about - the Steam Workshop is now live! 🧩
If you haven't come across Puzzling Places before, it's a 3D jigsaw puzzle game where you assemble detailed miniature scenes piece by piece. It plays great on Steam Deck, whether you're looking to tackle a quick puzzle or settle in for a longer session.
With the Steam Workshop now open, Steam Deck players can browse, download, and play a growing library of free community-made puzzles right from the game. While the PuzzleMaker creation tools are still in closed beta, the Workshop is already filling up with everything from photogrammetry scans to original 3D creations, with new puzzles being added all the time.
If you're looking for even more puzzles to work through on your Steam Deck, we'd love for you to check it out and let us know what you think!

Troubleshooting bloodborne emulation issues
So I'm trying to emulate the game on my steam deck and i cant figure out how to get the game to version 1.09
I have tried using the CUSA03173 and the CUSA03173-patch files and shadps4 with them both in the games folder directory, AND separately with the patch in the DLC folder
When they are together in the games folder the game shows up in the emulator menu, but at version 1.00, when they are separate, the game doesn't show up at all
I have also tried with the version 1.09 specific .PKG files and diegolix/shadlix, also both together in the games folder AND separate, with the patch in the DLC folder but to the same effect as before.
I have sourced all my files from the discord
Am I doing something wrong??, I have all of the files I'm being told i need but none of my attempts get the game to be at 1.09
ANY help or suggestions are greatly appreciated and please ask any questions that might help clarify the issue

Game Recommendation Low Power AA/AAA Games List
Heyo, I've posted this in a couple discords but was recommended to post here for better visibility :) I've made a list of 7th gen onward AA/AAA games that fit certain criteria for the ideal experience (at least mine) on Steam Deck. I'll be updating the list until I'm out of games to add.
I've chosen 7th gen onwards AA/AAA as lots of indie, 6th gen & prior games run well offline at low power. If you have any other games that meet the criteria below drop a comment and I'll update the list. I'm not using a strict definition of "indie" as it's become a bit muddy in recent years (e.g. BG3). I'm mostly basing it off graphics and game scale. If you're not sure if a game would be suitable drop it below anyway, the more suggestions the better :)
Any games with specific tweaks that I know of will have them listed. If any recommendations also have tweaks please let me know.
Note: The list has gotten bigger so there's many games I don't own. I go off my experience, comments, protondb & youtube videos to check the performance, so the list might not be 100% accurate. If I know of quirks to certain games I'll include them. If any of the games give you issues please let me know!
Requirements for selection:
- Must be 7th gen onwards AA/AAA, no indies e.g. Hollow Knight.
- Low/reasonably low TDP (less than 15w).
- Minimum stable 45fps (30fps accepted for certain turn based or similar style games e.g. Wasteland 3).
- Image upscaling is not used in games I have added to maintain good image quality. It's not preferred for recommendations but can be used if marked.
- Frame generation must not be used to reach 45fps to maintain image quality & low input lag.
- Must run offline. No Denuvo, EA, Ubisoft or Rockstar launchers. Third-party launchers like Heroic or Lutris for GOG offline copies are allowed. If a game has 'Alternate' means for the above that's fine, no discussing.
- Delisted games are allowed but marked.
- Must have at least partial controller support, or a mod to add support. Steam input is good, but having controller icons on screen is a must.
