A look over all the goodies on sale (and free) for Linux gaming fans this weekend

Quoting: JJNovaPretty disappointed the newer Metro games don't have linux ports
Supposedly coming? Would have been nice if they had it ready when it came to Steam, since it was on EGS for a while first, but better late than never, I guess.

Merging elements from XCOM and HOMM 'Fort Triumph' is out now - some thoughts
17 Apr 2020 at 6:22 am UTC

Quoting: KimyrielleFiraxis used Aspyr to port their games.
Aspyr did the Civ games, but Feral did the XCOM games. Looks like this new game is a smaller / cheaper one; maybe Feral didn't think there was much profit in it?

Humble 2K's Game Together Bundle went live with a few Linux games

If anyone has an extra key for Sid Meier's Pirates they don't want, I'll take it off your hands! ;-)
Like others, I've already got all the interesting stuff in this bundle...

Quoting: BrazilianGamerHey folks, is anyone else having trouble with the "Like" button here? It vanished. Can't like anything anymore
It's gone for me as well.

Jackbox Games goes global with Quiplash 2 InterLASHional out now, we have a few keys to give away

Not looking for a key, but wanted to like the article, and noticed all the hearts are gone! Was that feature removed?

Quoting: GuestSome great games this month. Got Trüberbrook yesterday
Can confirm; Trüberbrook was an enjoyable point&click adventure. The ending was a little odd, though.

Does anyone know "how much" of Hitman 2 is included, considering the base game is already free on Steam?
https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/11358/HITMAN_2__Standard_Edition/ [External Link]

Other than that, I already have the games I really want from that list, other than Turok 2, so this month is a bit disappointing (and last month wasn't stellar).

Speculation: porting studio Feral Interactive could be in some trouble (updated: they're fine)

Quoting: Whitewolfe80wb ... promised Arkham then pulled the plug on feral.
Do we know for sure who pulled the plug? It happened when it was getting review bombed and everyone was using the (brand new!) Steam refunding system. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Feral backed out at that point. Either way, it's disappointing, as it seems the reviews turned quite positive after the initial hatred.

Bronze Age pixel-art RTS 'The Fertile Crescent' has a bunch of visual upgrades

Is it just me, or does it need a broader color palette? Everything looks washed out...
