I have really been loving my steam deck lately. I’ve now played through Fallout 3, New Vegas, all of their respective DLCs, and am about 100hrs into 4 right now.

Normally I play indie games since that’s where my interests are and I grow tired of the AAA jackassery.

I mention that to illustrate that I do use and live the deck. But I guess I’m not creative enough to use the back buttons at all. So to the title question:

  • What games do you play that make the most use of the back buttons?

  • What functions are mapped to those buttons?

  • Or are you like me and just never use them?

    YMMV, I treat it on demand, but in most cases it’s unused.

    Civ: End turn

    Driving games: Shift paddle

    It’s like the 4th mouse button. Sometimes you don’t realize how much you might enjoy having it mapped.
