Kind of the opposite of a video game, but I've been playing The Lurking Horror, a Lovecraftian Infocom text adventure from the 80s. I tried to play it as a kid, when it was more or less current, but it was way over my head then.
I'm not playing it on Linux... at least not on my computer. I was playing it in Termux on my phone, but the text-adventure program*, Frotz, had some annoying glitches, so now I'm playing it in an "app" I downloaded from F-Droid. It's also playable on DOSBOX.
*To clarify...Termux is a terminal emulator for Android. Frotz is a command-line program for Termux that is used for playing text adventure games of a specific file type. Lurking Horror is one game of many that use that file type.
