I switched from ASUS ROG Ally to Steam Deck 6 months ago, and I’ve been craving a proper website for game ratings on Steam Deck, similar to rogallylife for ROG Ally. Unfortunately, I could never find one.

ProtonDB only shows Linux compatibility, and “Verified” on Steam means almost nothing in real-world performance. So instead of doing hours of research before buying every game, I felt a simple review site with scores and notes was needed for Steam Deck.

And… welcome to the first early beta of my future project.

I own over 1500 games on Steam and I try to play every popular and fresh release. I don’t finish them all, but I play enough to justify a fair performance rating on Steam Deck.

If you like this format, I plan to create a Google Sheets database with frequent updates and important notes.

Test conditions:

All games are tested on a 1TB Steam Deck OLED model,

• No Proton/Experimental changes

• No frame generation (built-in or Lossless Scaling)

• Mostly default or low settings

• Sometimes I tweak FSR / XeSS / TSR quality

(If your experience doesn’t match mine, feel free to ask for my exact settings in the comments.)

Here is my rating system:

I rate games on Steam Deck based on real gameplay experience, not benchmarks.

My stars reflect a combination of visual quality + FPS stability.

★★★★★ = Looks good and runs smooth at stable 30/45 FPS

★★★★☆ = Acceptable visuals with stable performance

★★★☆☆ = Playable but requires heavy visual compromises

★★☆☆☆ = Almost playable, frequent drops or very blurry image

★☆☆☆☆ = Unplayable, unstable, stuttery, or visually broken experience

(60✓) means the game looks good and runs at a stable 60 FPS.

These ratings are based on long play sessions, not short tests.

The goal is simple: Is this game actually enjoyable (performance wise)on Steam deck ?

Here are my tested games. I tested almost all of them since last 2 months. Maybe some updates made them better, feel free to tell me in the comments.

If you are curious about a game which is not present here, if i own it, i can install and do a quick session and rate it myself, also if you are curious about a detailed review on a specific game here, (not gameplay wise/performance & visual aspect wise) i can help you with that.

I'm open to any suggestions, please have a wonderful day . :)
