I have Dell Inspiron 16 Plus with an Intel i7, 32GB of ram, and a 3060m. I installed the games normally through Steam; I didn't alter the download location, or anything like that.
Did you install proprietary Nvidia drivers through the Driver Manager app?
I believe so, yes. My driver is nvidia-driver-550
Since you mentioned that this is a hybrid-GPU laptop, I'd suggest trying to change your default GPU to Nvidia exclusively from the relevant system tray applet. I did use to use Linux Mint on my old Acer gaming laptop and this helped a lot.
