Backpack Battles. It's an inventory management based auto-battler. Chill game and I like spatial puzzle a lot.
The game uses the Godot engine and it runs great on the deck. The UI is very smooth and thoughtfully designed.
A neat thing about the battle system is that it's fully asynchronous. No matchmaking delay and it even works offline. I believe it works by preloading a number of opponent-builds at the beginning of the run.

Started playing #BLUD, I'm only about ten minutes in because sleep got the better of me last night but it looks pretty good so far.
i've only bought one right before the steam sale but i have a bunch i'm considering later this week with payday. :)
before the steam sale i got secret of mana and i've been enjoying it so much (as someone who played the og so much at my friends house growing up)
i'm also considering final fantasy 13, final fantasy 12, two point campus/hospital, trials of mana, MAYBE jedi fallen order but it is an ea game so eehhh, fable, and tbh i'm thinking about the south park suite of games just for a dumb, stupid mindless steam deck game :)
it's also not steam deck compatible but i'm also thinking about pro wrestling sim since i loved tew.
- Bloons TD 6: this plays great on the deck, especially with the touchscreen
- Euro Truck Simulator 2: mostly just got it as it was super cheap and I saw some of my friends already have it
- Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy: looked super fun when I saw my friends play, but I don't really like the controls on the deck
For anyone looking for some other nice games for the deck, I can heavily recommend:
- Stray
- Dave The Diver
- Celeste
