For me, it's Factorio.

a game in which you build and maintain factories.

It even has Wayland support!

What's yours?

EDIT: Great Linux ports* not like some forced ports that barely work or don't.

Doom, of course!

Also, OpenRCT2, and Unreal Tournament.

Doom

Which one because I don't think this Doom you meant?

OpenRCT2

I tried it to work on Linux but no luck so far. :c

and Unreal Tournament

I see 2nd mention of this game. Could you link it with the Linux native port?

Nope, I meant this Doom, whose original source code is here on GitHub.

I'm surprised you've not got OpenRCT2 to work - I'm fairly sure it's in most default repos.

You do need to have a full copy of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 as it uses data / assets from the original game.

I would happily link you to Unreal Tournament, but it's no longer for sale anywhere as far as I'm aware.

Ah, the classic one.

Yeah, I will try again soon. I don't know anything about this game, besides I bought it when discounted and it has RollerCoasters.

Ah... what a shame.
