PayPalHumble's monthly subscription with the Humble Choice has a fresh set of games up ready for February.
With different tiers available from £3.99 up to £15.99 a month (cheaper if you do it per-year), you get to pick from a bunch of games each month to keep. You also get access to an absolute ton of DRM-free games from the Humble Trove.
Here's the games you can pick from for February with Linux-supported games in bold at the top:
- Pathfinder: Kingmaker Explorer Edition
- Eliza
- SHENZHEN I/O
- The Hex
- Underhero
- Frostpunk + The Rifts DLC
- Book of Demons
- CryoFall
- Okami HD
- Project Warlock
- Warstone TD
- Night Call
Humble do also fund some smaller developers to release original games, this month you get Tales From Off-Peak City Vol. 1 which does support Linux.
Check out the February Humble Choice here if you're interested in any of that.

CryoFall is borked according to ProtonDB.
Night Call has 2 reviews saying it's borked but one, newest, says it's working well with new Proton.
Underhero has only one review but it's platinum.
Those two are risky for a Linux user.
Frostpunk alone is worth $25 but honestly I'm disappointed with the bundle because no single game is something I would choose myself to buy if I could choose anything and I was sooo waiting for the bundle.

Yeah, I was also pretty keen to see what this month would bring. It's definitely a good value bundle: Eliza, The Hex, Frostpunk, Shenzen, Warlock, Pathfinder, all games I would enjoy. But none of these are on my wishlist, I already have a large backlog, and D:OS2 is taking most of my gaming time at the moment. So I should pause.
Last month I managed to get Two Point Hospital and Whispers of a Machine by trading unwanted stuff from past bundles. I might take the same approach this month.

D:OS2
Had to do the shocked Smilie to see that you meant D: OS2, which is Divinity: Original Sin 2, I think. :)

A lot of decent games in the bundle, but nothing I really care about. Might get it simply for high trading value.

I'm tempted for Pathfinder... and Frostpunk apparently runs great with Proton.

Also worth noting: the "extra" DRM-free game this month also has Linux support: https://cosmoddd.itch.io/tales-from-off-peak-city

Worth noting about CryoFall:
The game is a part of Humble Choice February and some players are curious whether it's a worthy choice.Source: https://steamcommunity.com/app/829590/discussions/5/1741140901898974584/
Don't guess, just download the demo from CryoFall page on Steam and try it for 8 hours (you can split this time for several days). It's a full trial version of the game with nothing cut and you can play on the same servers. If you like it, you can get a game key from Humble and activate the full version of the game, and continue where you left.

Frostpunk seems interesting? Has anyone played it? I love city management games, so this seems to pique my interest.

I never played it but it's game from creators of "This War of Mine" and as far as I know Frostpunk is more about survival than city building.

Big pause from me. Only Eliza stood out for me, with possibly The Hex as a curiosity in second place. Pretty disappointing overall, especially for a Linux-only gamer, even with Steam Play.

I'm not sure if it's good place to ask but: I was never pausing so far. And when I paused there was info that if I pause I won't get next bundle. That seems wrong. If I paused today for a month and the pause ends on March 8th, will I be able to get March bundle?

Hi. You can pause and/or continue when you like. If you were to pause the current February Choices Subscription today, you'd be able to continue it and select your February Choices tomorrow. If you pause it now, and leave it paused, then you'd miss the February Choices but when the March Choices become available, your Subscription would revert to being Active.
If your (February) Subscription is Active on the week prior to the new (March) bundle coming out, i.e. approx 25th of the month, then Humble is likely to add the (February) Bundle to your account - because you hadn't paused it early enough. I tend to make up my mind before 23rd of the month, i.e. Pause A Month (or not). Then I would miss the current (February) month and would not get charged for it.
To be clear, if you pause "today" and haven't selected any Choices, then the Pause will be in effect for this month's bundle (February Choices) and will revert to active for the next Bundle (March).
