X-COM: UFO Defense is a true classic. I played it originally on Amiga for days on end and it has a fully functional open source engine from the community named 'OpenXcom'. The game is free right now on Humble Store, so go grab it.
It's a Windows key, so you will need some form of Wine or Steam commands to grab the data files to use in the open source OpenXcom engine. I've actually put plenty of time into the game inside of OpenXcom and it works damn nicely too.
Don't pass up on a good deal guys. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

I can only recommend everyone to run this game with the OpenXCOM engine and not the original. Much more options, all bugs which are plaguing the original are patched, the Interface is reworked with lots of awesome options, I could go on here for minutes.
Just much more enjoyable :D

No problem, as said, I spent a LONG time fiddling around with trying to compile stuff myself, working around library issues etc etc it was a nightmare. The readme's and instructions are really muddled and outdated.
That being said, I have actually played only a little, never get time!
