I’ve been playing Old School Runescape during zoom meetings but I’ve done all that can be done in a free account and I don’t wanna pay the exorbitant membership fee.
Looking for recommendations for a similar game that doesn’t require a lot of attention and can be easily paused/resumed at will.
Must be able to run/emulate on Linux
Turn based games work the best for this, you can stop playing at any moment or resume at any moment without any issues. I played Civilization III for most lectures through university. Civ III does run under Proton but not well. Civ V has a native build, and would be a good entry point into the series.
Freeciv could be an alternative too https://www.freeciv.org/
I can’t speak for Civ III, but my experience with Civ V is that running the Windows version under Proton actually performs better nowadays than the native build. But YMMV.
