Has anyone tried playing this on Steam Deck?

[CptMoobs]

I am lazy and haven't actually checked if this game even runs on the deck, but if it does I'm curious as to how well it runs. It'd be real cool to be able to play CIV and not need to pause to go use the bathroom.

Store page says playable with a few minor limitations. The game has a native Linux version, so I guess it will work quite ok. But it's steam, simply buy, test < 2hrs and get a refund in case it doesn't work well.

Zen 2 Specs (CPU in Steam Deck)
Desktop APUs
Socket: AM4.
All the CPUs support DDR4-3200 in dual-channel mode.
L1 cache: 64 KB (32 KB data + 32 KB instruction) per core.
L2 cache: 512 KB per core.
All the CPUs support 24 PCIe 3.0 lanes. ...
Includes integrated GCN 5th generation GPU.
Fabrication process: TSMC 7FF.
And the deck has 16gb RAM

Id say it should handle Civ6 real well till super late game then you might have some longer loading times would be my best guess based on specs.
I cant see a reason the game wouldnt run playably.

Oh I already own the game, I'm really just trying to figure out if it'd be worth getting a deck, if the games that I want to actually play, play well on it.

It worked fine for me. It takes a little getting used to using the mouse pad thingy on the right side of the 'Deck, but after that all works well.

I can't speak about late game performance, but early to mid game works fine.

I play a lot of strategy games on my Deck, so if you're looking for other ones that also work on the 'deck, I'm happy to advise.

Oh, PS: Just do what my friends did and put a TV/Monitor in your bathroom and steamcast it to that monitor. x'D
Me: Why would you do this?
Buddy: I want to watch the game while I go to the bathroom...
