Steam Deck HQ
Online/Digital
When the Steam Deck came out, there was an insane amount of excitement and an endless idea of possibility. Now, with it in hand, that feeling is exemplified by the open nature of Linux and integration of SteamOS. With it being so open though, there are lots of settings and configurations that can be done to fine-tune everyone’s experience.
Steam Deck HQ was created with the idea to find out the best ways to configure not only games, but everything deck related. The goal is to provide information on performance of games on the deck and a starting point for configurations with different priorities, give a way to request specific games to review, tutorials for setting up games and programs, and much more down the line.
We hope to keep improving the website as time goes on and welcome any suggestions you may have! Don’t hesitate to reach out to us through our social media or use the form we will provide down below at the bottom of the website. We have many plans to expand as we grow including deck news, streams, Q&A, hardware/accessory reviews, and more.
Feel free to join our Discord server to talk to us directly, give us immediate feedback, talk Steam Deck, or just find like-minded gamers!

SPRAWL zero Review + Steam Deck Performance
SPRAWL zero was provided by Kwalee for review. Thank you! Three years ago, I had the pleasure of reviewing SPRAWL, a new shooter that was heavily inspired by retro FPS titles. I fell in love with it, with the constant action, slow-motion bullet time, and sci-fi visual style enchanting me as I played. So, when I saw that a sequel was on the way, which was digging deeper into its sci-fi roots, I was intrigued, but I was left with mixed feelings after playing it.
