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!

    Not related to your stated interests, but Minecraft will work better on Linux than Windows due to Java optimizations.

    itch.io client works well on Linux from my tests, but I have no specific recommendations for you because it has been some time.

      I’m always wondering if there is any proof behind that claim?
