The first release of 0 A.D. that doesn't have an Alpha label attached, as the free and open source RTS has grown up with their faster release schedule.

I really want to play this game but I am having trouble to see high DPI the games load with a tiny tiny font for me. I am using Linux Mint

Hmm, there might be a more proper solution, but picking a lower resolution would probably make things bigger...

So if I change out my wife's glasses, something might appear bigger? ๐Ÿ‘€ /s

Glasses for correcting far-sightedness do just use a convex lens like in a magnifying glass, so ...yes?

The config file has some settings that might help

https://github.com/0ad/0ad/blob/master/binaries/data/config/default.cfg

Such as

scale = 1.0                       ; GUI scaling factor, for improved compatibility with 4K displays

And maybe

; Enable Hi-DPI where supported, currently working only for testing.
hidpi = false

Finally

; Force a particular resolution. (If these are 0, the default is
; to keep the current desktop resolution in fullscreen mode or to
; use 1024x768 in windowed mode.)
xres = 0
yres = 0
