Any recommendations for low-end, Linux-friendly games to play? (beehaw.org)

Hi everyone! So I just switched to Linux and I am a little unsure of what to play on my laptop.

It's a presumably decent laptop, 16gb of ram and Iris Xe, but I find that it has battery issues trying to play anything fancy like Skyrim.

I'm looking into things like emulation, finally tackling my Itch.io backlog, and bringing out old classics.

I like RPGs and text-based choose your own adventure games, so if you have any recommendations I'd appreciate it!

Minecraft is often a good time and can run well on low end machines.

Text based and RPGs you say? Maybe it's time to explore some MUDs?

For the King is also a nice chill game with a great system reqs:fun ratio. Currently on sale too.

Haven't seen someone even reference a MUD in probably five years. I don't doubt there are a lot of them still running but I couldn't even guess what that scene looks like these days.
