From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The only game I have ever played is FIFA on a PS4. Now I have a gaming laptop but have no idea how I should go about playing games on Linux. Appreciate your help in advance!

Sid Meier's Civilization VI (or any other part)

The two games are not even remotely related, 0AD is more comparable to Age of Empire series.

I feel guilty, I've downloaded it but haven't played it yet :')

No joke, that's the main reason I've barely played it. Even with the built in tutorial and with Distrotube's guide on 0AD I still feel a bit lost and overwhelmed
