I recently got a Steamdeck and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations of games that take almost 0 brainpower to play so that I can focus on listening to audiobooks.
For me that means no dialogue and no text to read. Games that have worked for me so far are:
- Rocket League (difficult to play on Steamdeck)
- Vampire Survivors (once I learned what each item does)
- Peggle
Games that I’ve had trouble with include
- Sifu
- Brotato (gotta read to learn the items)
- Factorio
- Baba is You
Games I have yet to really try:
- Elite Dangerous
- Elden Ring
- Dorf Romantik (this is promising)
- Powerwash Simulator (also promising)
- RollerDrome
- Halo: MCC online (is Halo 3 online viable on steamdeck?)
- Risk of Rain 2
- Hades
Anyone have any suggestions? I’m running out of ideas and may end up just forgoing this hole idea in favor of keeping gaming and books separate
maybe one of the Truck Simulators?
Seconded. Between American Truck Simulator and Snowrunner I went through… I think Star Trek Voyager, Charmed and unavoidably something else too. Both games run well on the Deck (ATS has a Linux version: pick the Windows one, it’s far more optimized)
Edit: and Forza Horizon! Can’t forget that.
