Uplink lets you play as a freelance hacker tackling risky contracts for corporations. Break into systems, steal data, sabotage rivals, and upgrade your gear. Support factions or go rogue in this immersive, strategy-driven hacking simulation game where your choices shape the outcome.

Is Uplink good on the Steam Deck?

Uplink carries the "Verified on Deck" badge, which means Valve has confirmed it runs well on the device with full controller support. As a indie game, the Deck's touchscreen helps with menus and fine control, which titles like this really benefit from. With a Metacritic score of 90, it's among the best-rated in its category — a safe pick for your Deck library.

Is Uplink worth buying?

At $11.99 on Steam, Uplink is a clear candidate for your Deck library; comparing the key across stores can shave a bit off the price. It's already budget-friendly — exactly the "cheap gem" range we look for on the Deck — but it still pays to check before buying. It's also a few years old now (2006), so it shows up in sales often.
