Any recommendations for low-end, Linux-friendly games to play?

Hi everyone! So I just switched to Linux and I am a little unsure of what to play on my laptop.

It’s a presumably decent laptop, 16gb of ram and Iris Xe, but I find that it has battery issues trying to play anything fancy like Skyrim.

I’m looking into things like emulation, finally tackling my Itch.io backlog, and bringing out old classics.

I like RPGs and text-based choose your own adventure games, so if you have any recommendations I’d appreciate it!

Do you like ARPGs? Titan Quest is a Greek mythology themed Diablo II clone that has some nice improvements over D2. It’s usually pretty cheap on Steam.

I would also strongly recommend Grim Dawn, one of the best games of the genre which is based on Titan Quest’s engine. Base game is often on sale, but I recommend both expansions as they are full of content.
