Hi, as it’s in my title. I’m looking for narrative driven games with good story, something I can play on my steam deck. Not something open open world but more of a on rails experience.
Things I’ve played that that should give rough idea what I have in mind:

  • The last of us
  • until dawn/the dark pictures anthology series
  • the quarry
  • new/remakes of resident evil games
  • Road 96
  • Alan Wake remake

I obviously have a horror/mystery preferences and I want the story to be told to me, I don’t like the dark souls approach of “guess or read all of the in game books or w/e to have a chance at glimpsing a hint of a story”

Wow, a fellow Alpha Protocol fan! A very underrated game.

I'd add Citizen Sleeper

any of the dontnod Life is Strange type games

Paradise Killer is FANTASTIC murder mystery

Wasteland 2 and 3

I am probably forgetting a lot of others at the moment.
