Not sure if I should post since I’ve just had mine for a week, but my highlights so far are Stardew Valley and Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed.

Stardew Valley is a charming game that’s really nice to play while watching something with my wife. It’s chill, and doesn’t take much attention usually, so it’s perfect for the mobile nature of the Deck to play in bed.

Sonic Racing I’ve been playing with my 5y.o. son. I suck at it, lol. I can’t consistently get 1st place in normal mode yet, but it’s fun, looks great, and plays smooth as silk.

The one game I tried and immediately put down was Against the Storm. I’m really excited to play it, but the controller is just moving a mouse cursor around. From the little I played, I was instantly frustrated that I needed to move the cursor over small UI buttons to open menus; it doesn’t seem to have a sensible control scheme for the Deck, and I mostly play in bed, so a mouse isn’t really an option for me. Disappointing, since I was so excited for it!
