I’m looking for some games to play with my girlfriend on the Deck, that are playable with Xbox controllers when then Deck is docked to the TV

Examples/games I already own:

  • Moving out
  • Piku Niku <- this one was really fun
  • Bread and Fred
  • Overcooked

    Lovers in a dangerous space-time

    Unravel (requires ea origin launcher)

    Nobody Saves the world is 50% off and is really really great, a goty 2022 contender in some circles.

    Battleblock Theater is an oldie but a goodie and 80% off.

    And the obligatory It Takes Two plug, also a GOTY contender.

    Future games:

    Surmount is coming out this year and has a demo out: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1675000/Surmount/

    I believe Moving Out 2 was announced

    Howdy, I got some input. My partner and both play on steamdecks.

    Saw this in one of the comments below but:

    Lovers in a Dangerous Space Time

    • Is a blast and I e of the few games you need another person to play with. The more the merrier.

    Heave Ho

    • Solid party fun.

    Laura Croft and The Guardian of Light

    • It’s a $1.49 during the summer sale. Played this a while back. Phenomenal time.

    PS: It says unsupported but I just booted it up and it loaded just fine, just tap the screen or use the track pads to get past the setting screen that loads up. Local co-op works and you can invite a friend.

    Pico Park

    • Simple game but get great for groups

    Unrailed

    • Recently had an underwater update and it’s been a jive to play. Vibrant colors. Voxel art style, everyone gets into a rhythm. Played with 4 people last week. Deck friendly fun.

    Nidhogg / Spiderheck /stick fight / Starwhal /duck game

    • Different flavors of the same kind of couch co-op mahem

    Plate Up

    • New spin on the restaurant, cooking genre

    Shovel Knight

    • GEM!

    Splunky 1&2

    • Just tried this game. So far so good.

    Ultimate Chicken Fight

    • If you like Battle Block Theatre

    Wildermyth

    • Procedurally generated RPG with paper cutout art style. Play this with a couple friends had a good time.

    Shift Happens

    • It’s a partner platformer

    ! If you get into Emudeck, Netplay is a thing, so is Parsec, but local play for console games works so well on the Deck!

    Trine 2

    • Played it on my nividia shield. It should work on the deck.

    Tetris

    • The new versions is a strangely addicting party game.
