Aren't Unigine mostly aimed at visual real life simulations?

Now I wish to see Planet Coaster to be ported to be honest. Not interested in Atari shady business anymore.

Quoting: damarrinHmm, I already have this on Steam (caved in when it was released to try it in Wine). I wonder how I can give Feral some money...
Buy it as a gift for your friend who also does Linux gaming maybe.

Quoting: EikeHow much icon grinding is it? I liked the first hours of Shadow of Mordor, but then, in felt more like work than like fun...
It is not an 'open world game' a la Shadow of Mordor or Mad Max.

It is quite linear experience, but level design and artistic direction is top notch imho and I kinda like this 'mysterious island where every ship ends up to be' feel very much. It has very detailed background history and it is worth to collect all those artifacts and read letters. Levels feel open and you can backtrack and go sideways to discover interesting ruins quite a lot. Or you can just follow main thread if that's your thing. Game flows very nicely and it is certainly one of my better AAA gaming experiences in last years.

Yep, looking forward to buying this, kept myself clean till Linux port arrives. I heard that second game is also OK-ish, and looking forward to that too - when it arrives.

It is still not 'main' branch which I think @omer666 wanted to point out.
