Good source for linux native games ?

I ran a quick search in this community and couldn’t find anything on this topic.

I’m gaming on linux, with a mix of official and alternatively-sourced games. I’ve recently noticed that GOG has an OS: Linux filter and I found some titles that I could like in that list.

I tried the sites listed in the megathread, and I did not find a place where I could get these linux versions.

Has any of you looked for the native linux versions of GOG games [edit: pirated versions] and found a good place for them ?

Clarification edit (some responses helped me realize my post is ambiguous) :

  • I’m not looking for linux-native game lists, I’ve got that already
  • I’m not looking for legitimate platforms on which to buy linux-native games, I’ve got that already
  • Playing games using proton is playing with a compatibility layer, not playing native
  • I’m looking for unofficial ways to acquire linux-native games, and I’m aware these are quite rare for resons well stated in some comments

Resources already outlined :

  • 1337x with the linux keyword -thanks to @Aram1s
  • rutracker.org thanks to @beetroid
  • johncena141’s torrents thanks to @kaya

    Thanks ! That’s one step I still have to take - dive into IRC and its ecosystem(s).

    Check out johncena141’s torrents. Definitely best (and probably only) linux torrent uploader. They have a matrix room for support and simple game installer/launcher if needed

    To clarify they upload both wine game bundles and native linux games

    gaael OP ,

    Thank you, I’ll check them out.

    Try rutracker.org with a Translation addon

    Thank you, I’ll check them out.

    Torrminatorr has a Linux section with quite a few games, including GOG releases.

    gaael OP ,

    the only problem with torriminatorr is it goes down pretty frequently

    Steam has a ton of native Linux games. Just sort the store by Linux. Protondb also extensively lists native games.

    Aram1s ,

    I guess it does not have enough demand since there are few native linux games, few people use linux (around 3%) and because of compatibility layers like proton and wine.

    gaael OP ,

    I agree with you on the cause, and that there are few and outdated versions on generalist torrent sites.
