I was a big time gamer when i was younger (years ago). Now with career and kids i do some casual gaming. I saw steam sale is going on and wondering what games would run decent on the fw13 amd? Specifically indie or older games or maybe crpg games. Bonus for games that are fun with trackpad or keyboard. I dont always have a mouse with. I thought I would pick up a game or two for my new laptop… that is in batch 9. Sigh.
Thanks community!
This reminds me I should see how well Vampire Survivors works on it.
Stardew Valley. Factorio. Hollow Knight. Shovel Knight.
Anyone have experience with Age of Empires 4 on framework amd 13?
It runs great on the Steam Deck, so should be even better on the FW.
Check out ETAPrimes videos on the 780M. Pretty much anything the steam deck can run, the FW13 will smash.
Try Emulation? Play some games from your youth? I have yet to receive mine too but I imagine it’ll run everything pretty flawlessly
Fortnite works pretty well. It’s not really a graphics-heavy game so you can play on the low graphics setting without noticeable compromise. Also Factorio.
I have The Sims 4 installed on mine. Beware though. The Sims 4 is buggy if you play it through Steam. Do it through the EA app instead if you do. The Sims 4 is an almost 10 year old game that is poorly optimised, but is updated frequently still, and runs fairly well. Hell, there’s a new expansion pack coming out next month.

The GPU is pretty great, and capable of running a lot of games well. If you’re looking for stuff that’s trackpad friendly, maybe pick up Vampire Survivors and/or Halls of Torment.
Highly recommend getting yourself Retroarch, then hitting the ole Internet Archive.
You’ll need a controller probably but Celeste is a god-tier platformer with an awesome vibe that will run on basically anything.
I’ve been playing Factorio on mine.
Factorio runs great on the Intel iGPU. The AMD chip should have no problem whatsoever.
Ooo yes! You can also can check out Satisfactory. Surprisingly I had no problems with it on my intel iGPU, so you’ll definitely be fine on yours. That dev has gone a long way in terms of optimization.
They have no sale policy so it won’t be on sale now, but it’s money well spent.
It’s a bit better with a mouse, but the touchpad is manageable. It’s not an action shooter, but you click a lot.
I really liked Surviving Mars, and that’ll probably run.

I’m super impressed with it. Was surprised to be getting great fps in gtav on max settings. I think the trend im seeing is that cpu intense games run best
It’s basically whatever. The days of being able to play only some retro or indie games on integrated graphics are long gone
Starfield might have trouble running, but something like Cyperbunk is playable already.
Still I play Stardew Valley on my old laptop and I recommend it, whether you’re using an Intel iGPU or a RTX 4090! It’s maybe the best PC game ever made.
