Tallowmere is one of the more interesting Procedural Death Labyrinth games that I have come across recently and I am shocked it isn't more popular.

I am sure there are plenty of Nethack fans around, Vulture is an isometric graphical interface for the roguelike engine: NetHack and it's trying to get on Steam.

We asked the developers about Desktop Dungeons getting a Linux port quite a while ago, and today they deliver in style. Desktop Dungeons is a a quick-play roguelike puzzle game, that sounds pretty confusing, but it looks awesome.

You know how we have a bunch of different types of science fiction space games? We have 4x strategy games, shooters, space ship simulators and a lot more. Well, Salvation Prophecy is a game that tries to be everything at the same time.

We only pointed Another Star out a few days ago and it has now pushed out the Linux version! The game caught my attention with its really authentic looking retro visuals, complete with a CRT screen effect.

I know what you're thinking when you see the word "retro", but don't worry Another Star actually looks the part. It does a similar thing to You Have To Win The Game and gives you a slightly bendy screen to make it all more authentic and I love it.

Ender Of Fire is a new side-scrolling 3D action game that actually looks awesome. Mixing good graphics with fun looking combat I'm sold.

Planet Stronghold is a sci-fi role-playing game with a turn-based combat system. It's not a new game for Linux and has been around for a while now.

Quest for Infamy is a game that looks absolutely fantastic for a point & click adventure game, it mixes some old styles of play with some interesting looking combat as well.

Play as ordinary people struggling for food, safety, freedom, and a chance at peace. Explore an ancient Indian city and use conversation, violence or both to achieve your goals. Unrest is an RPG/Adventure game that adapts to death, failure, and the choices you make.

The developer behind the fun indie hit Vox a voxel based, action, adventure and creation game with a big focus on player created content has re-confirmed their plans for the Linux version. The good news is that the major content patch is now out, so once dust settles on that the Linux version will come!

Legend of Dungeon is the highly colourful mix of RPG and procedural death labyrinth game types for fun results. This update is a whopper and finally adds saving your game, magic isn't it!

Quest of Dungeons is a turn based dungeon crawler game featuring a good old 16-bit retro artistic look. I had a chance to not only test the game and video it for you, but to let you know the developer needs Linux testers.

We have to wait a little while longer to play Divinity: Original Sin folks as the developers have now confirmed Linux will see a release when it exits Early Access.

Starsector previously known as Starfarer is a game I have been following since early 2011 and I am glad to say it's still being fully worked on. Starsector is an open-world single-player space-combat, roleplaying, exploration and economic game.

Black Ice is a fantastic looking FPS game with some RPG elements thrown in, it's awesome because it's like playing a shooter in Tron land.

Heart Forth, Alicia is a beautifully crafted Metroidvania RPG on Kickstarter right now seeking funds. It has already hit well-over the initial goal and is sailing towards the Linux stretch goal, but why is it a stretch goal?

It seems the president of Gearbox is looking into how much interest there is for a Linux version of their extremely popular Borderlands series of FPS/RPG games.

Sacred Fire is a narrative RPG, integrating story and gameplay by using emotions in both combat and dialogue. It's not quite what I thought it would be.

Wasteland 2 is easily one of the most anticipated titles to come to Linux in recent years, they stated last week the Linux version would be this week and they actually delivered!
