Valve's Steam Deck is the newest handheld console often mentioned in gaming forums. Some people compared it to the Nintendo Switch, although each of them serves different target markets.
The Steam Deck is for gamers who want to experience PC gaming inside a handheld console, while the Switch is for those who wish to enjoy Nintendo-exclusive games on the go.
Valve's console is more like a Switch Lite that you can carry everywhere. It's a portable device that lets you play Steam games more conveniently than a computer.
Best Steam Deck Games to Try Before 2022 Ends
'Cuphead'
"Cuphead'' is a comical game that might appear as a kiddie game. However, do not underestimate its poster because many gamers fall into its trap. It's like a Soul's game in the guise of a cartoon show.
This game is notorious for being extremely hard to finish. Given its light art style, you won't mistake it for a children's game for the second time around.
"Cuphead" is also available on Nintendo Switch, PS4, Mac, and Xbox One.
'The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt'
The success of the Netflix version of "The Witcher" could be attributed to the success that its game version has achieved over the past year.
Steam Deck gamers should not let this moment pass since "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" is now accessible on the handheld console.
The game is well-received by game reviewers and oftentimes, it's praised through its rich story, high graphics, and long-hour grinding.
Switch users can also play this game, but the quality of the game is less appealing. As usual, it's far better in the Steam Deck version because the Valve console has a dedicated GPU for gaming.

'Elden Ring'
The list won't be complete without at least one official Souls game. If you have intense challenges along your Steam Deck gaming, you can try "Elden Ring" for a thrill.
However, this game is not for everyone since it's gritty and too time-consuming to play. Fortunately, once you get used to its difficulty, you can enjoy the fruits of your rewards by roaming its open-world map.
FromSoftware did not disappoint its fans when it released another worthy game for every Souls player. It's a must-download Steam Deck game that every user should play at the moment.
'The Binding of Isaac'
Indie games are often overlooked by many, yet some of them are worth exploring on different gaming platforms. In Steam Deck, your best bet under this category is "The Binding of Isaac," which features a humorous art style and enjoyable quests.
"The Binding of Isaac" is a classic game that was first released in 2011. Its mere existence proves that even the oldest game can still bring fun to veterans and newbies.
