Hi everyone! So I just switched to Linux and I am a little unsure of what to play on my laptop.

It's a presumably decent laptop, 16gb of ram and Iris Xe, but I find that it has battery issues trying to play anything fancy like Skyrim.

I'm looking into things like emulation, finally tackling my Itch.io backlog, and bringing out old classics.

I like RPGs and text-based choose your own adventure games, so if you have any recommendations I'd appreciate it!

I'd suggest to check IFDB for the text adventures.

Ooh I didn't know there was a database for interactive fiction! Thank you!

I want to stress that I am NOT liable for any loss of educational opportunities or employment resulting from this discovery ;)

I played this one a number of years back and enjoyed it: Christminster - a sort of 'whodunnit' set in an old University college.
