We’re less than two weeks away from the Steam Deck’s release date, and excitement surrounding Valve’s portable gaming PC has never been higher. However, many users remain uncertain as to how their Steam games will run on the Deck, if at all. Thankfully, in lieu of an official solution from Valve, the community has decided to take things into their own hands.
Introducing CheckMyDeck, a project by Reddit user Flexxyyy that allows you to check how compatible your Steam library is with the Steam Deck. It also works with your Steam wishlist, meaning you can check a game’s verification level before you decide to buy it.

You need to have a few details to hand in order to use the site, but we’ve put together a guide down below that you can follow.

Finally, you may need to change the privacy settings of your Steam profile in order to use CheckMyDeck. If you do, the site has a handy tutorial that should pop up once you enter your Steam ID.
