Death Stranding 2 has been a delight to play on the Deck, especially after the performance upgrade patches, though I miss the sounds the PlayStation controllers make when playing it on the PC.
Slay the Spire 2, especially the multi-player, has become a nigh daily ritual for me and my partner to play in bed a bit before sleeping and it runs just perfectly on the Steam Deck.
Ale Abbey is an old tycoon style game about running a monastery that makes all different sorts of beer, with a fairly robust and fascinatingly complex mixture of brewing and economic minigames. And while it's obviously meant to be played on the desktop, it works very well on the Steam Deck.
I've had my eye on Ale Abbey for some time. Would you recommend? I enjoyed Stardew Valley and Graveyard Keeper.
I do highly recommend it, though I might recommend checking out someone's streams of it if you're unsure. I had watched this dude on YouTube, Quill18, play it for a bit before deciding to get it. It seems like it's a substantially longer game than I expected which is a nice surprise.
