ASUS’s ROG Ally handheld has quickly grown to become the de-facto Windows handheld gaming PC, and at times – a more powerful alternative to the Steam Deck. The Ally can play games the Deck cannot, largely thanks to its higher TDP limits.
As such, running Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on the ROG Ally is rather trivial, as the game runs with little to no issues on the handheld – thanks to the Ally using Windows over Linux, which has several compatibility issues at the moment.
You can find a breakdown of the best settings for the game listed below.
