Which games didn't work?
My kid actually plays the games: Trailmakers and Satisfactory.
Trailmakers is bizarre, that should work OOTB with the latest proton.
The entirety of the steps on a normal machine is steam settings > compatibility > enable steam play for all other titles
and then also run other titles with the latest proton on the dropdown.
Super weird that you faced issues there, are you on nvidia? They have a lot of problems.
Oh, yup: Nvidia
Yeah nvidia sucks on linux, that's probably the entire problem you had

thankfully this issue is soon to be resolved, something called nvidia open should put an end to this soon
when/if you ever decide to try again I recommend trying this, it sets up nvidia-open and everything for you (even steam) and updates fully automatically, it's basically steamos.
