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

    Me and my girlfriend actually just played It Takes Two. Absolutely phenomenal game. Really fun to play and a bit emotional for her due to family problems. But an amazing game. Be ready to really learn how to play well together to get through some of the bosses. It took us about 2 weeks off and on about 1-1.5 hour play sessions, but it was so worth it.

    A fun fighting game that gets away from Smash Bros clones is Stick Fight. Even good for more than 2 people!

    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.
