So you are planning to explore BIOMORPH, where you turn into the creatures you defeat. The game’s demo has been around for some time and now it has had its full release. The reviews are good and with that, there are many players like you flocking in to try the game. But, hold up! Wondering if it will work on your favorite gaming handhelds like the Steam Deck, Lenovo Legion Go, or Asus Rog Ally? Don’t sweat it! We’ve got you covered. In this article, we’ll break down whether BIOMORPH plays nice with these devices, so you can jump into your Metroidvania adventure without a hitch.
Metroidvania games are practically made for handheld systems. They’re not overly graphic or intense but rather focus on simple yet super-engaging gameplay mechanics. Plus, there have been other Metroidvania games like “Hollow Knight” and “Dead Cells” that are Deck Verified, so there’s no reason why BIOMORPH shouldn’t be supported on these handheld devices. That being said, let’s see what the support details are like.

Steam Deck
While BIOMORPH doesn’t currently sport the Deck Verified or Playable badge, we do have some reassuring words straight from the developers themselves. In a FAQ thread dated January 31, 2023, mgregoirelds, a developer, confirmed that the game’s demo runs smoothly on the Steam Deck, stating, “Playing BIOMORPH on a Steam Deck works great and is a ton of fun.” So, even though the official badges may not be present just yet, it’s clear from the developer’s statement that BIOMORPH is indeed compatible with Valve’s handheld wonder. Now, from the players‘ side, there is a mixed experience with BIOMORPH on the Steam Deck regarding performance. While some users have noted consistent framerates and no issues with battery usage or clock speeds, others have encountered framerate inconsistencies and concerns about CPU clock speeds reaching high levels. The lack of graphical options also limits players’ ability to optimize performance settings. However, some players have found that switching to fullscreen mode can improve FPS, and there are differing opinions on whether it’s better to lock the framerate at 60 fps for improved battery life.
Asus Rog Ally and Lenovo Legion Go
The official Twitter/X handle of ASUS ROG Ally Life, @ROGAllyLife, shared praise for BIOMORPH, stating that it was one of their favorite games from the last Steam Next Fest and that it’s performing excellently on the ROG Ally.

This tweet confirms that BIOMORPH runs smoothly on the ASUS ROG Ally gaming device. But unlike the Ally, there are no official reports or statements for the Lenovo Legion Go. While there may not be an official update regarding BIOMORPH’s performance on the Lenovo Legion Go, given its similar specs to the ASUS ROG Ally, we can reasonably assume that the game will run smoothly on this device as well.
Well, that’s all the information we have for now regarding BIOMORPH’s compatibility with various handheld gaming devices. We hope this insight has helped inform your gaming decisions.
