Why would you even need to open the terminal? Just enjoy the games!
Opening the terminal on your Steam Deck is pretty straightforward - just hold down the 'power' button for a second to bring up the power menu, then select 'Switch to Desktop'. From there, tap the 'Applications' menu in the bottom-left corner of the screen, look for 'System' and then 'Konsole' to open up the terminal. Easy peasy!
