Good news KINGDOM HEARTS fans. All of the titles currently available on Steam have now been tested by Valve and given the fancy green Steam Deck Verified tick.
For as much as I loved kingdom hearts 1 when I was younger, these games are pretty terrible. I replayed 1 and 2 when 3 came out and man are they an absolute mess. Always good to see more "retro" games coming to modern platforms though
I would say the story of KH1 is pretty great, it's just that the gameplay and menus are quite dated and very frustrating to deal with. The platforming is still a bit of a problem but with dual-stick controls it's at least bearable.
If you don't want to play it, I would still recommend looking up the story beats in video form so you know the story. KH2 is where I would say the gameplay really takes off.
Here's some other recently fully Steam Deck Verified games that may be worth a look:
Features split-screen coop, a helpful pet, automated drones, resourceful pixies, a card-eating progression system, and dangerous dungeons to delve into!
Push monster balls into holes or traps in randomly generated levels.
Stack up countless game-changing items to create broken builds.
MULLET MADJACK is a single-player fast-paced FPS that brings you directly inside a CLASSIC ANIME.
