Stuck for what to pick up? With the huge Steam Summer Sale ending tomorrow at 5PM UTC, here's a little helping hand for you on what's good.
I get why you might be stuck, with well over six thousand games on Steam alone that support Linux, it's easy to get completely swallowed up in the vast sea of games. Especially true if you're looking to pick up a game on sale, as there's close to five thousand of those discounted!
Going by games that have a good discount on them and support Linux officially, plus they're rated very highly by users, here's 10 games you should definitely pick up if you don't own them already:
- The Talos Principle - 85% off
- Broforce - 75% off - My all time favourite action platformer. It's simply hilarious and the destruction is thoroughly over the top. You will love it.
- Don't Starve Together - 66% off
- Dying Light - 66% off - With the upcoming Hellraid DLC (see our preview), it's going to get even more fun.
- Slime Rancher - 66% off
- The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth - 50% off
- Into the Breach - 50% off
- Slay the Spire - 50% off
- Tabletop Simulator - 50% off
- Stardew Valley - 40% off
Those are all well-known, often talked about titles that are highly rated but what about the smaller and/or lesser-known titles that still deserve plenty of attention? Here's another few that I think are firmly worth spending some time with:
- Horizon Chase Turbo - 70% off
- Particle Fleet: Emergence - 67% off
- Duskers - 50% off
- Dicey Dungeons - 50% off
- Sky Racket - 50% off
- Scalak - 30% of
Picked up something good you're dying to tell everyone about? Let us know in the comments.

Been thoroughly underwhelmed by this event, at times I've even forgotten that here was one. It doesn't feel like Valve are even trying any more.

I picked up Dicey Dungeons. Only played the first "show", but it is good fun. And picked up the Puppygames Ultrabundle because I will have to try Basingstoke at some point. And a few more that I don't quite remember :D

I bought Project Heartbeat, so far I have great experience playing it.

QuoteDying Light - 66% off - With the upcoming Hellraid DLC (see our preview), it's going to get even more fun.
Is it supposed to be working well on Linux ?
I’m only getting a black screen with a white line at the bottom, like a loading something.
I thought maybe it’s just long to load, but it’s 10 minutes now, so it’s more like a crash i guess ?

Quoting: TcheyRun it with the Steam Linux Runtime. Right click -> Properties -> Tick the Steam Play box and pick Steam Linux Runtime. It's the container system for Linux builds, as it seems something on Arch/Manjaro is conflicting with it preventing it running properly. The container fixes it :)QuoteDying Light - 66% off - With the upcoming Hellraid DLC (see our preview), it's going to get even more fun.

Problem is... True native Linux games that I haven't already bought and that got my interest are getting fewer. I settled on Titanfall 2, Doom Eternal and Divinity: Original Sin 2 (which seems to work great after a tweak).
Waiting on Metro Exodus to officially release on Linux before buying it... Kind of contradictory, when you think of it... I'm buying games that are running fine on Proton but I won't buy a game that will release on Linux, even if it runs fine on Proton... Don't know what to think of it.
