The remake of Age of Mythology plays great on it. I've also played Age of Empires I & III Definitive Editions on it a lot, but that required a significant amount of steam controller profile tinkering, and it's only good for slower single player turtle play.

A recent story game I played fully on it was Ys X Nordics. Great action and story game and tons of fun, and ran pretty well on Steam Deck. Ys VIII Lacrimosa of Dana also played well on it and is a long but incredible story, and Ys I & II Chronicles. All great story driven games I've played on Deck. I'm sure the other Ys games on Steam probably will also be good on Deck.

Some other good options I've played a lot on Steam Deck:

  • The first Warhammer Space Marine game
  • American Truck Simulator
  • Warhammer Inquisitor Martyr
  • Sniper Ghost Warrior 2
  • Metal Gear Solid V
  • Halo MCC, I played a lot of Reach and Combat Evolved on it
  • Metal Gear Rising
  • Just Cause 2
  • V Rally 4
  • Shadow Tactics
  • Mad Max

These I've also played tons on Steam Deck, but I think they required some tinkering to get running:

  • Elder Scrolls Oblivion (not the remake)
  • The Saboteur
  • Warhammer Dawn of War 1
  • Sacred 2 Gold
  • Renegade Ops
