Fortnite works pretty well. It's not really a graphics-heavy game so you can play on the low graphics setting without noticeable compromise. Also Factorio.

I have The Sims 4 installed on mine. Beware though. The Sims 4 is buggy if you play it through Steam. Do it through the EA app instead if you do. The Sims 4 is an almost 10 year old game that is poorly optimised, but is updated frequently still, and runs fairly well. Hell, there's a new expansion pack coming out next month.
Try Emulation? Play some games from your youth? I have yet to receive mine too but I imagine it’ll run everything pretty flawlessly
Stardew valley
The GPU is pretty great, and capable of running a lot of games well. If you're looking for stuff that's trackpad friendly, maybe pick up Vampire Survivors and/or Halls of Torment.
Highly recommend getting yourself Retroarch, then hitting the ole Internet Archive.
You'll need a controller probably but Celeste is a god-tier platformer with an awesome vibe that will run on basically anything.
I've been playing Factorio on mine.
Factorio runs great on the Intel iGPU. The AMD chip should have no problem whatsoever.
Ooo yes! You can also can check out Satisfactory. Surprisingly I had no problems with it on my intel iGPU, so you’ll definitely be fine on yours. That dev has gone a long way in terms of optimization.
They have no sale policy so it won't be on sale now, but it's money well spent.
It's a bit better with a mouse, but the touchpad is manageable. It's not an action shooter, but you click a lot.
The Pedestrian is a pretty great modern indie platform / puzzle game which runs on Linux. Not a very long game, but worth your time if it's your sort of thing.
So far, all games i played run well, most impressively doom eternal in medium settings.
I doubt you'll run into issues with any somewhat optimized game.
I really liked Surviving Mars, and that'll probably run.
Anyone have experience with Age of Empires 4 on framework amd 13?
It runs great on the Steam Deck, so should be even better on the FW.
stardew valley
I'm super impressed with it. Was surprised to be getting great fps in gtav on max settings. I think the trend im seeing is that cpu intense games run best
It's basically whatever. The days of being able to play only some retro or indie games on integrated graphics are long gone
Starfield might have trouble running, but something like Cyperbunk is playable already.
Still I play Stardew Valley on my old laptop and I recommend it, whether you're using an Intel iGPU or a RTX 4090! It's maybe the best PC game ever made.
Check out ETAPrimes videos on the 780M. Pretty much anything the steam deck can run, the FW13 will smash.
They got similar chips to the Steam Deck, ROG Ally, etc. So check out what games run well on those! Steam should have a "Deck certified" page with games they know run well. Also, any 2D game, any emulated game sans PS3, and most games before 2013 or so run on everything
Tf2 with a config has been running great on mine! Hotline miami one and two can run on anything basically, and they are great games!
Factorio Starsector
I've got the 11th gen i5 and could get Doom 2016 running decently enough to play the single player campaign at native resolution, although the fan was running full blast the whole time and more than half of the graphics were down to medium. I'd love to hear what the AMD system can do.
As a point of reference, for me, Terraria runs great. Portal runs great. In Vampire Survivors, don't pick Sammy and attempt an endless run, but otherwise it runs pretty well.
Deep Rock Galactic runs fine on my i5-1340P, so it should run amazingly with the AMD iGPU.
On Steam, I browse by games that are able to play on Linux (unintuitive on Steams part but you can categorize the store by Linux availability). Guaranteed to work like butter; plenty of games. I don’t know a ton of games that would be okay without a mouse to improve it. Cities Skylines 1 plays well, lotta clicking.
Stardew Valley. Factorio. Hollow Knight. Shovel Knight.
Holocure if you like bright colors and anime girls. Also stuff like Stardew Valley and FTL will work great.
Risk of rain remastered 🔥
Minecraft, and roblox
If GTA V can perform good on a Athlon X4 and a 1GB GPU, then the framework will will better
I remember playing Intelligent Qube like crazy on my PIII laptop on a PSX emulator. It's actually addicting. If you go that route, the whole world of old school gaming is available to you. But Intelligent Qube was easy to play on a keyboard.
I've been playing a lot of Fall Guys on mine lately. It runs decently on the 11th gen Intel fw at 800p 30fps but on the AMD fw I can run it on max settings, no problem.
Rain World is an awesome game, you need just the keyboard to play it; it's a modern 2D platformer with procedural animation, look it up
hop on Guilty Gear XX Accent Core +R it’s on sale for like 3 dollars 🗣️🗣️🗣️
try osu. its free.
Probably Hades, Dark Souls 1 Remastered
OpenRCT2 is great! You do need to have RCT2 installed which is currently 5 bucks on steam.

This reminds me I should see how well Vampire Survivors works on it.
