I tried this a good while ago on Windows and quite liked it. Looking forward to get properly stuck in now I'm pretty much Linux only :) Will submit a port report as soon as I've had a good amount of time on it. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

However I am very pleased that the game was released to Linux and I hope our library will grow even faster!
Not my thing , but glad we have it :)
In one of the last stages in the ice caves, the stalactites were a bit too hard. However, that part was reasonably short so it didn't ruin the game. Game took less than 5 hours but I haven't tried for all the achievements.
Gameplay was smooth (Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti). Graphics were nice and I liked the storytelling. Good port as far as I can tell.
The Linux version of A Story About my Uncle included in the Humble Indie Bundle 18 is DRMFREE.. Well.. All Linux games in that bundle are DRMFREE and I just purchase it for that reason.
Just checked it out and confirmed. Downlaoded it now. I still would buy a copy from GOG if they brought it over as I want to give their Linux version some money.
The GOG's edition of [A Story About my Uncle](https://www.gog.com/game/story_about_my_uncle_a) just added the Linux version and it's system requirements on the store page..
