What games are great for an 8-hour flight without power?

-

Hey everyone! I have an 8-hour flight coming up, and I just got a Steam Deck for Christmas. I’ve been primarily playing Persona 5 Royal, but I’ve noticed the battery lasts only about 3-4 hours. I enjoy roguelikes/lites and I’ve previously played games like Hades, Balatro, Slay the Spire, and Monster Hunter. I won’t have access to power outlets during the flight, and taking a power bank isn’t feasible since I need to pack light. What games would you recommend for this long journey?

If you want to stretch the battery life, I’d recommend checking out emulators. You can play classic SNES or Genesis games, which can last you about 10 hours!

Just grab Stardew Valley. It’s super immersive—you might just lose track of time and forget you’re on a flight!

Yes! Stardew is the best for long flights!

For a great battery life, try games like Dead Cells or Spiritfall. Hollow Knight is also an awesome pick! With optimal settings, Hollow Knight can give you a good 7-8 hours of gameplay.

Hollow Knight is a must-try! Such a great game!
