Hi, as it’s in my title. I’m looking for narrative driven games with good story, something I can play on my steam deck. Not something open open world but more of a on rails experience.
Things I’ve played that that should give rough idea what I have in mind:

  • The last of us
  • until dawn/the dark pictures anthology series
  • the quarry
  • new/remakes of resident evil games
  • Road 96
  • Alan Wake remake

I obviously have a horror/mystery preferences and I want the story to be told to me, I don’t like the dark souls approach of “guess or read all of the in game books or w/e to have a chance at glimpsing a hint of a story”

If you haven’t played it yet, the Mass Effect trilogy. The Legendary Edition runs well on Steam Deck ( one of my coworkers is playing it now on his), and the story is really good.

Since you liked Alan Wake, also look at Control - it’s even set in the same universe as Alan Wake is, too.

If you like horror, there’s also Doki Doki Literature Club.
