Bringing together auto-battling and monster-training into a fun mixture, NEODUEL: Backpack Monsters from DiceHit Games and Rogue Duck Interactive releases on September 30th. It has Native Linux support.
Very similar to Backpack Battles, but the monster twist to it seemed interesting from the previous demo I played through for quite a while. Here you have the inventory management side to it but you also have the Cosmions, little monsters you put in your bag that you evolve and fuse to create unique builds to fight with.

“NeoDuel: Backpack Monsters is our ode to the strategy and auto-battling genre. We wanted to create a game where players could experiment with builds, create unique combinations, and play on their own time. The Cosmions add a layer of depth, allowing for a plethora of possibilities in every duel." - Bahadır, lead developer at DiceHit Games.
