In regards to Native Linux support they said:
We're making builds for macOS and Linux all the time and we hope that we will be able to optimize the game to release it for these platforms with reasonable system requirements. We'll see what we can do later in the development process and we are convinced that there is some room for improvement.

But add in a set of quality puzzles and the story doesn't matter that much, anymore.
