If you want a new 4x strategy game perhaps you’ll want to keep an eye on Folk Emerging – like a smaller version of Civilization in the Stone Age. There’s a demo available on Steam that should work just fine with Proton on Linux / SteamOS systems and plenty of people seem to be enjoying the demo.
More about it: “Folk Emerging is a stone age turn-based 4X strategy game with in-depth characters, cultures, and ecosystems. Explore the wilderness, gather & trade resources, and outsmart enemies in autobattler combat. Discover fire, agriculture, politics—and survive to tell the tale.”
This is the first game from EU-based solo developer Curious Dynamics combining their love of history, biology, and strategy games.
See the trailer for it below:
Game Highlights:
- Technology: a tech tree spanning the Pleistocene up to the start of the Bronze Age, covering skills from controlled fire and cooking, through domestication and agriculture, all the way to megalithic construction and the first cities.
- Culture: shape your tribe’s unique culture, with evolving cultural norms that differentiate you from your neighbors, affecting trade and war.
- Economy: resources are finite and their extraction affects the environment.
- Ecology: 9 unique climates, each with a complex and dynamic food web.
- Procedurally generated Earth-like maps based on realistic climate simulations.
- Many generations of deeply simulated individuals with heritable traits, all affecting various game systems.
- Narrative events that can alter the trajectory of your entire tribe.
- Social Networks: Dynamic social network visualization, enabling a new way to understand and manage family trees and relationships between members of your band.
