      Really? I could’ve sworn I’d played that on Linux before, unless it’s been a lot longer than I thought since I touched it. Are we talking BTD6 on steam specifically?

      You can run non-steam windows games on linux as well, even without steam installed.

        No.

        90% of Windows games on steam.

        The real number is way higher. Stuff made in the 00s probably runs better under wine than on windows 10 o or 11 but was usually distributed outside Steam.
