Not every game will, and many will need some modifications, but lots of games work great on iOS, console, and PC. Stardew Valley, Darkest Dungeon, Hearthstone are some examples that have controls that do well in multiple platforms. I personally think Clash Royal would be awesome with a mouse and keyboard.

All your examples already had OSX ports, I'm sure they'll be on ARM Macs as well. The big 'winners' from easy iOS porting are likely be cheap iOS games with matching small technical effort to port [which is different from actually porting the gameplay/interface]. Hopefully Apple will improve discoverability in their store so they're easy to filter.
