Another thing I've liked about linux. The community is amazing, and I find games I never would have heard of otherwise! What are some games you've found solely because of linux?

For me,

Luanti (voxelibre, mineclone)

There are so many, it's pretty awesome.

Tiny list I've been enjoying, plus an ancient classic:

  1. The Battle for Wesnoth
  2. 0 A.D.
  3. DOOM the Roguelike
  4. Nethack

Falcon's Eye sorta rings a bell, but I didn't realize it was Nethack or know about Vulture 'til now!
