The MMO genre is something Linux doesn't really have a lot of games in, so I am pleased every time I hear about one coming. Space Wars: Interstellar Empires is a turn-based tactical strategy MMO that will launch in January 2017 with Linux support.

If you are after an amusing time-killer, or perhaps something to entertain the kids, you may want to check out 'Clouds & Sheep 2'.

Antony asked us to post up about 'The Little Acre', and after looking it up it seems well worth letting people know about. It's a beautifully hand-drawn animated adventure coming on November 22nd.

'Prison Run and Gun' was a game I discovered because of an IndieDB giveaway, and I kept an eye on it since then. Considering it currently is on sale (60% off), I decided to finally try it. Apart from a particular but serious issue, I don't really have any reason not to recommend it.

That's right, we are mentioning Halloween again. Noct is a freaky 2D top-down action and survival game that has been updated with new gameplay.

Slayaway Camp is an isometric and sadistic puzzler where you play as a deranged psychopath who goes on a rampage at an isolated camp in the woods. Although there isn't an official demo available, you can find the free version of the game on Kongregate.

Natural Selection 2 is the RTS/FPS hybrid that's pretty damn fun and it has just been updated. You can now get a new game-mode from the Steam Workshop and the entire game is free to try all weekend.

In an announcement posted on the Steam store page of CHKN the day before yesterday, the developers of this strange but interesting sandbox game are celebrating a contest for Halloween. Basically, you need to create a monster and submit it before October 31st. There will be three winners.

If you're a bit low on funds, you might like to know that Steam is doing a 2016 Halloween sale with some nice Linux games on offer.

It's finally here! Black Mesa is now officially available for Linux in beta form. It looks really great!

Stellaris has come a long way since the initial release, so I checked back on how it feels with the new DLC.

Slime Rancher is a little favourite of mine, as it has some pretty fun gameplay and it's great for kids too. This new update isn't massive, but it's good.

Game porter Ethan Lee, who has done tons of Linux ports went to SteamDevDays and he has now done a write-up of the experience.

Meadow, from the developers of Shelter is a purely online game where there's no objectives, and it just sounds weird.

The developer of 'Pavilion' was kind enough to send in a key to their really stylish fourth-person puzzling adventure, so I took a look.

Point & Click adventure game 'The Wardrobe' to release with day-1 Linux support on January 26th 2017.

This dungeon crawler was fully released two months ago, on September 6th. Strangely, despite the fact that there is a demo available at IndieDB, the developers didn’t include it on the Steam store page, which would have made more sense.

Cities: Skylines - Natural Disasters is the next DLC for the city building simulation Cities: Skylines, and we now have a gameplay trailer.

It's not often a trailer leaves me begging for more, but 'Tether' ticked all my boxes. The developer is using UE4 and claims the Linux builds are working as expected.

Project Zomboid is the rather good sandbox Zombie survival game from The Indie Stone, and it has come a long way!
