It needs to be docked to a monitor with a mouse and keyboard to be an enjoyable experience. With that equipment, it's great!

Tinker Steps:Switch to experimental

Control Layout:Switch To Keyboard And Mouse

Control Layout Customization:Other

I play with a mouse and keyboard in docked mode.

Difficult To Read Text:

The UI can be scaled larger in the ingame menu.

Significant Bugs:

Anything requiring keyboard input would not work until I changed to Desktop Mode, at which point, wverythig worked perfectly.

I've put 100s of hours into Planet Zoo with my set up and it works really well. It is not a grab and go kind of game, but if you don't have a PC, it's a great way to have access to this game.

Works perfectly with GE 8-4. Runs surprisingly well on deck.

You can increase the size of the UI but it can cause some minor issues.

Difficult To Read Text:Yes

At first you get a message "GPU drivers are out of date" but you can skip this. Performance was good, even with thousands of guests in the park. Controls are a bit clunky with the trackpads and the UI is very small on SteamDeck. So it's certainly not the best experience to play the game, but it's possible to play it.
