I thought if you come here from the search engine, I'll show you how to install and use it on this particular form factor and share my experiences. Just to be clear, I don't really intend to advertise anything here.

Vintage Story is not on Steam, but it is a Linux game and it works nicely on Steam Deck as a non-steam game. I received mine a while ago, and of course being a fan of the game I installed Vintage Story on it.

Video game company Valve recently came up with an affordable PC Linux handheld device called Steam Deck. If you are running Linux, BSD, Solaris or Mac OS X, Wine will run most of the older Windows based software (and DOSBox).In this thread I explain how to install, configure, play, mod and update Vintage Story on Steam Deck. Some titles may *mostly* work by simply configuring them to use a compatibility mode. Most Windows titles will need to be run through Windows Virtual PC under the appropriate version of Windows for full functionality. You can find an easy to follow DOSBox tutorial here. For DOS titles you will need to use DOSBox. The majority of these games will not run correctly on modern operating systems. If you are the copyright holder of a classic computer game and would like the full version of your work to appear in the archive please e-mail me at I'm also more than happy to answer questions and fill requests. Specific news regarding major updates can be found on our website Demu. New files are added to this collection on a regular basis. Where possible online play is enabled to enjoy the game directly in your browser. These files are the original releases which will require intermediate to advanced knowledge to install and run on modern operating systems. The files available in this collection consist primarily of PC demos, freeware, and shareware. Take a step back in time and revisit your favorite DOS and Windows games.
