How big is the battery on the legion go? The deck's battery drains so quickly I wouldn't be surprised if it couldn't last 7 hours even in the home screen.

I've gotten over 12 hours playing Stardew Valley on my Deck with the wattage down to 2W, something wrong with yours? lol

According to a PC Gamer article, it has a 55.5 Wh battery. https://www.pcgamer.com/hardware/handheld-gaming-pcs/lenovo-legion-go-s-windows-review/ (This one is for the Windows version but the SteamOS version has (or may have) similar hardware.)

So 7 hours on that battery would be approximately 5 hours on the deck.

I'll download dead cells here to see how long the deck can run it in one charge, but I doubt it'll reach anywhere close to five hours with the default settings.

Edit: I was wrong. Got six hours out of it even.
