I love the original Prince of Persia, and the SDLPoP fan remake plays beautifully on the Deck (just add the Windows/Linux version from here as a non-Steam game).

SdLPoP control issues
SDLPoP is an open source port of the original Prince of Persia using the sdl library. Yes, I've also gathered that it's a standalone application that doesn't run through RetroArch. The documentation for the particular Retropie port of it is a bit sparse, but from what I've been able to gather apparently if one has control issues they should use that gamecontrollerdb.txt file and configure it correctly, but it's just that I couldn't get it to work. Whether I'm doing something wrong or there's something wrong with the port itself given the hardware, I don't know, that's why I'm asking for help here. For reference, here's some of the information I've already gone through : https://github.com/NagyD/SDLPoP

Prince of Persia - great cinematic platformer, and probably first game I ever played. My oldest gaming memory is main character dying on spikes.
There's a source port to run the game on modern systems: https://github.com/NagyD/SDLPoP

If you’re old enough to remember: Prince of Persia from 1989
This is a good way to play this: https://github.com/NagyD/SDLPoP

Prince of Persia JavaScript
This is great and I also enjoy https://github.com/NagyD/SDLPoP where my favourite feature is the ability to take a screenshot of the whole level... which usually fits well within my 4K display.
Oh, and playing at 3840x1200 means that every original 320x200 pixel is ... 144 pixels!

Theme Hospital didn't age well...
Of anyone wants to play then there is an open source update for it called CorsixTH. Faithful to the original but it works on modern hardware.
-
is Theme hospital free anywhere to download that is relatively safe, i assume the game is freeware these days?
When you play, use the Corsix-TH source port.

The HD mod has not been the recommended way to play the game in maybe seven or eight years. You want VCMI which is an open source reimplementation project similar to projects like OpenTTD, OpenXCom, OpenRA, OpenRCT2, CorsixTH, and OpenMW.
- Will this run on windows 10?

Shoutout to the Corsix TH project. Now I can play Theme Hospital on the go.
