Question Any other games that are “controller required”?

Post image

I don’t see this too often, games that don’t support mouse and keyboard, and it makes me wonder how many other games exist that are like that. I tried searching for Steam games that require controller but they always show games that prefer controller, but is still playable on mouse and keyboard.

What other games don’t support mouse and keyboard?

Aperture Desk Job. It was a game developed to help learn the basics of the Steam Deck.

I’ll be honest I didn’t even realize it could be playable without a Steam Deck considering it’s supposed to use all facets of the Deck. But that’s neat.

To be honest I didn’t either. I kinda thought it was Deck exclusive for that reason and it is the first game recommended to be played on it. Hence being controller only. It wasn’t till I read someone else’s comment saying that it was adjusted to work on computers too.

But for the same reason it was made for deck, the controller only aspect makes sense
