Hey everyone!
So I recently bought the Steam deck, and love every second of it. It allows me to play games that I normally never play on PC. Like some indies.
But I have a question. I want a game where I can just braindead level. Bit like Runescape back in the day. Is there some game like that for the Deck?
Monster Hunter World/Rise. After mastering monsters it becomes a grind for parts.
D2R. I know plenty have played the shit out of D2 already but somehow I hadn’t and after seeing how shit D4 was D2R has been great on the deck. Runs flawlessly.
Try Dinkum, it’s like a mixture between Animal’s crossing and Srardew Valley and a very chill and relaxed game. There are a bunch of levels for pretty much every one of your skills and it takes a while to progress into the game.
Forager is a prettty good small indie not quite idle zelda-like, where you gather resources and craft to progress along a whole tech tree. It’s pretty fun and chill to play without too much focus.
If you’re into idle games at all, try out Melvor Idle. Costs $10 but you can try it for free on a browser if you want to see what you’re getting. It’s heavily inspired by RuneScape. Melvor is without a doubt the best idle game I’ve ever played, so if you’re a fan of the genre and aren’t afraid of the grind, I’d highly recommend it.
I almost wanted to recommend this, but for a dedicated game system it’s a real emphasis on idle. You’d essentially be tapping every so often or setting up a task and then letting it go. I don’t think it’s a good dedicated Steam Deck game, but it is a hell of an idle game
