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!

Here's a couple based on the vibe you're feeling. You'll need some compatability stuff like play on Linux to play some of them.

RPG:Witcher 3
City builder: Cities Skyline (one is better because of mods).
Factory builder: Factorio
Side scroller: Cuphead
Historical conquer map: Crusader Kings 3
Total War: Medieval 2
Explore/Adventure: Subnautica (good with controller)
Puzzle: Manifold Garden / Portal
Rougelike: Hades
Rougelike/Cardplay: Slay the spire

I've completed all of these and had a blast with all of them. :)
