From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

AAAAXY. It's a really nerdy game where you are in a non-euclidian (escherian) space. I've already poured more than 30 hours into this game. It's available on Linux as a Flatpak (recommended if you don't know which to choose), an AppImage, or a native binary. https://divverent.github.io/aaaaxy (ps. it's open-source)
The most addictive game is "getting more games". Follow Wario64's discord, check prices at isthereanydeal, get the Epic freebies, mix and match bundles at Fanatical.
but have no idea how I should go about playing games on Linux
What distro?
Do you know what graphics card you're using?
Fedora and intel iris graphics.
Osrs and WoW both run on Linux if you want something addictive lol. Bottles seems to work best for battle.net stuff.
These are my favorite games:
Hyper Light Drifter
Dark souls 3
Hades
Nier Automata
Control
Everspace
Hollow Knight
BioShock
Bastion
Transistor
Saints Row 3
Try RAFT
At the moment I just picked up thronefall, and really enjoy it. It's great if you like tower defense and city building games, but don't have too much time on your hands to get invested into longer games. The progression system feels good and adds a lot of replayability. It runs perfectly on Linux as well right out of the box!
