    I checked and the latest patch switched the emulation to dosbox for the official GOG build. DOSbox runs great on Ubuntu so I’m gonna go ahead and say at least the original game works on Linux. However, I’ll have to get back to you on the mod. Currently I’m supposed to be recording a book about aquaponics.

        Yo, it’s modded to work with a gamepad!!! The controls take a bit to get used to, but it’s very worth the effort

        Btw, my buddy says it worked for him on Kali; patch & all ( (which if true is impressive! Kali isn’t for gaming at all))

        It reminds me of when I first played Morrowind all those years ago. If you know what I’m talking about, you’ll be happy you gave it the effort to get it going. Heck, I’ll send you a keyboard mod. It’s regression, as the gamepad mod adds to the experience a lot. You feel lost in a dungeon. It’s perfect. Chef’s kiss.

          Well I’ll just wait a bit, it’s not like it’s rocket science to drive a game by mouse/keyboard!

          Edit: thanks for the Linux info, I hope it’ll run directly on steam when I’m ready for it 😁
