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!

    Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup. It’s free and open source available as a download or in browser here. Not sure if your familiar with traditional roguelikes, but it’s basically a permadeath turn based rpg. I finally picked it back up recently and have been addicted. Finally got my first won today after some 300 games.

        MiFi^oka so about the second least interesting win, there’s a dcss community on a federated server so i was thinking of writing up the inaugural YAVP.

          Neat! Nothing wrong with that combo, sword and board is a fun way to play imo.

          My shining achievement was an OpFi and I doubt I’ll ever get that lucky again 😅
