How to setup OpenMW for modern Morrowind on Linux / SteamOS and Steam Deck
How to install Hollow Knight: Silksong mods on Linux, SteamOS and Steam Deck
Here are both my original Loki boxes, which are complete
and one unfortunately missing the CD (I don't really remember where I got this, maybe ebay)
and also some games that were only sold as case (after the era of game boxes)
Other than that I still have some boxes and cases of games that got downloadable installers or point releases (e.g. Doom, Quake, NWN).
Then, here's two more in DVD-sized cases from around 2015 that prominently feature Linux support on the box. I also like the DRM-free logo. Power to the customer, I guess!
And for good measure, a rather recent collector's big box. Like how the sticker mimicks that of game boxes of the '80s and '90s, when you had the same boxes for so many competing computer architectures.
I've got some more boxed games for Linux (the most recent being Victoria 3), but a lot of them fail to mention Linux support on the box, or it's buried somewhere in the fine print, so I'll leave it at those four.
All of my pictures of course are saved for either past or future articles:
