It really does surprise me on the types of games that are popular on Steam Deck, just continuing to show what a ridiculously versatile device it is.
As always, I am complete torn and overwhelmed on what to buy. I have hundreds of games still to complete, a massive pile of shame collecting dust and an unholy attachment to Helldivers 2 right now. So do I really need more games? Yes, of course I do.
If you're a bit stuck an easy recommendation is Bloons TD 6, it's probably the most fun I've ever had with a tower defense game. It's flawless on Linux with Proton and at 50% off it's an easy purchase if you like TD games. Baldur's Gate 3 also only has a tiny discount at 10% off but gosh — best RPG I've played in years and it's not likely to be cheaper any time soon.
Check out everything on the Steam store. What will you be picking up?
