Hi everyone, I'm looking for some grindy games to play on the deck (any genre is OK).

Currently playing monster hunter world and I think I'll give factorio a try.

Any suggestions?

Have you tried the Ys series of action RPGs? Ys VIII is a lot of grindy monster whacking fun and runs great on Deck.

I got Ys I & II origins for deck, along with Oath and maybe Memories (III and IV) back in the holiday sale to get myself into that series. I’m somewhere in the middle of II, possibly near the end, but I find the world so endearing and the bump system fun in a weird, arcadey way. 1 was super short, and the boss fights aren’t always fun for me because I don’t like bullet-hell stuff, but I can see myself riding it through.

I got curious because did the same with the trails games (currently finishing up Cold Steel II) and haven’t been able to put it down.

I’m also curious about the dragon quest games.
