For me, it's Factorio.

a game in which you build and maintain factories.

It even has Wayland support!

(Version 1.1.77» Fri Mar 03, 2023 3:44 pm)

Graphics

  • Added support for Wayland on Linux. To enable it, set SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland in your environment. (thanks to raiguard)

What's yours?

EDIT: Great Linux ports* not like some forced ports that barely work or don't.

The new Valheim update was pretty fun. I also like playing CS2

Has it supported Linux more or just adding more content?

CS2

Yeah, its Linux port is superb now compared to CS:GO.

Just more content. The ashlands update added a new biome to the game with some fun stuff. Valheim has been running well on Linux for a long time.

Great to hear that! I need to make it finally running... (some weird audio issues)

Open source, more modern, Ultima Online client. Still need the original art files. https://github.com/ClassicUO/ClassicUO

My top answers are of course Kerbal Space Program, Dwarf Fortress and Stellaris.

However, all those have been mentioned already, so, to add something new to the list: Pathfinder: Kingmaker. It is currently my favourite cRPG.

Edit: Since you mentioned "Great Linux ports": Kingmaker has a game-breaking bug in the Linux version regarding Gamepad input. However, as long as you play it with mouse and keyboard (as the gods intended - insert PC Master Race meme), the Linux version is working perfectly fine. However, if you plan on playing it on the Steam Deck, you might want to play the Windows build.

Great ones!

Since people have already mentioned Factorio, Dead cells, and Stellaris (which btw all of paradox grand strategy games since CK2 have native versions). I'll mention a lesser known game that me and my wife love to play, it's similar to Overcooked (which btw Overcooked 2 has native Linux support) but a lot more calm: Out of Space

Ark survival evolved is one of my personal favorites
