Linux Game Picks

This is a collection of games with native Linux builds - meaning that you can run them without any additional emulation software like Proton or Wine. These games were chosen because I personally enjoy them or find them interesting. They are listed in no particular order.

Some games are available from various sources. You will need Flatpack enabled and Flathub added a source for the 'Discover Flatpak' links to work, click here for details.
