Spring is upon us, so we should all go outside and smell some flowers or the sweet, sweet vent fumes of the Steam Deck on a sunny day. Totally kidding--you shouldn't huff fumes from any electronic. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't enjoy the warmer weather with your Steam Deck in tow. It's perfect timing, too, as Steam's Spring Sale is live now. We've rounded up over 25 of the best Steam Deck deals in Steam's Spring Sale.

All of the games on our list are either marked as verified/playable by Valve or GameSpot staff has personally tried the game on Deck and can vouch for its compatibility. For this list, we focused more on indie games that feel right at home on a handheld device. Most of these also have the added benefit of not draining your Steam Deck's battery in an hour or two. No one wants to go on a hike with a fully charged Steam Deck and only get an hour of play out of it, because then they'd have to stare at the natural beauty of nature or something.

If you're looking for deals on bigger AAA titles, we have a list dedicated to the overall best Steam Spring Sale deals. For that list of recommendations, we focused largely on games that have released within the past year. And, of course, our lists are by no means comprehensive. It's simply unfeasible to include all of the notable game deals in one roundup. After all, there are thousands of games up for grabs for discounted prices.

For even more deals on Steam games, don't forget to check out GameSpot sister site Fanatical's Spring Sale, which includes a bonus offer netting you a free game when you spend $12 or more. Green Man Gaming also has a ton of deals on Steam games in its Spring Sale. Plus, the Epic Games Store has its own Spring Sale to browse. If you weren't already aware, it's worth mentioning you can add games purchased from Epic to your Steam Deck.
