Gameplay

PATAPON 1+2 REPLAY revives two remarkably unconventional games whose mixture of rhythm, strategy, action, and role-playing mechanics still feels distinctive years after their original appearances.
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Overall, Patapon is still one of my favorite games, and it works great on the Steam Deck as well as desktop (after latency adjustment), and you still will get a great Patapon experience if you play this.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This is understandable considering how naturally the four rhythmic inputs translate to controller buttons, although players expecting conventional PC control options should keep the limitation in mind.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
20 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
As far as the quality of this port is concerned, I think it's as much as one can do without altering the game into something it isn't by changing the style or adding "modern" graphics.
