Let's leave Steam and other launchers and distribution platforms alone a bit. Also lets stop discussing game engines for moment ...

What are your favorite games that run natively on Linux and what genre are they?

Would be cool if you could write a few words about the game and why it's your favorite game.

Although its been a while, ksp linux was the fist to have 64bit support compared to the windows version. If you haven't heard of ksp it's space program/ spaceflight simulator grounden in real world physics/rocket technology with a few caveats. Without mods, the planets are "on rails" and don't change orbits, and you are only affected by one "gravity source" at a time. The system it takes place in is about 1/10th scale

I have thousands of hours across dozens of playthroughs, and every single one of them ends the same way; the whole damn universe eventually de-coheres under the pressure of a relatively small quantity of mods and everything gets borked. I swear never again to waste my life playing it, and then start a new campaign 6-12 months later.
