I like community builders and games that I can keep a world for years and grow, watch it evolve. I enjoy Rimworld. ARK evolved series is good.
Bonus if it’s multiplayer capable LAN and not online.
Oxygen not included is nice but mentally taxing sometimes. I prefer laid back chill games with economy and farming. 2d or 3d doesn’t matter. I don’t mind trying indie games. Survival based games are nice. I’m not super pick and choose.
Give me your greatest joy in game form. I’ve heard Stardew Valley is good. I tried it, reminds me of a gameboy game. I could not get into the game. My character kept falling asleep like 14 times in a day.
Vintage Story is worth looking into imho.
Postal Diplomacy has been around longer than the internet, so why not.
If you haven’t played it, Terraria. One of my all time favorite games, after all those years. Should also be really cheap on sales.
Factorio is definitely worth a try.
Project zomboid, once build 42 finally comes out that is. Shouldn’t be more than a few more months right? Haha
That game has consumed multiple glorious years of my life. Amazing game with an amazing modding community.
Kerbal Space Program runs better through proton than it does either natively in windows or natively in linux.
It’s the game I have the most hours in, by a large margin.
I enjoy Xonotix once in a while. Old school shooter like Quake or Doom. You can play online or solo against computer players. Lots of weapons to nab with odd effects.
Construction Simulator is p chill.
I’ve always been a fan of hearts if you can get 4 people together. If not, rummy or bridge? I guess it depends how offline you mean.
He said “linux friendly”. How many linux users do you know with THREE irl friends?
