This guide describes how to use Steam Proton to play and run Windows games on your Linux computer. Some games may not work or may break because Steam Proton is still at a very early stage.
1. Activating Steam Proton for Linux:
Proton is integrated into the Steam Client with "Steam Play." To activate proton, go into your steam client and click on Steam in the upper right corner. Then click on settings to open a new window. From here, click on the Steam Play button at the bottom of the panel. Click "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles."
Alternatively: Go to Steam > Settings > Steam Play and turn on the "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles" option.
Valve has tested and fixed some Steam titles and you will now be able to play most of them. However, if you want to go further and play titles that even Valve hasn't tested, toggle the "Enable Steam Play for all titles" option.
2. Choose a version
You should use the Steam Proton version recommended by Steam: 3.7-8. This is the most stable version of Steam Proton at the moment.
3. Restart your Steam
After you have successfully activated Steam Proton, click "OK" and Steam will ask you to restart it for the changes to take effect. Restart it. Your computer will now play all of steam's whitelisted games seamlessly.
4. Launch Stardew Valley on Linux:
Before you can use Steam Proton, you must first download the Stardew Valley Windows game from Steam. When you download Stardew Valley for the first time, you will notice that the download size is slightly larger than the size of the game.
This happens because Steam will download your chosen Steam Proton version with this game as well. After the download is complete, simply click the "Play" button.
Fantasy strategy RPG with roguelike elements. A game about choice: every mechanic is an alternative to another. Fight or bribe, craft or trade, build or cast. Find your own path and reach victory.
The Gates of Hell have burst open.
Relentless hordes flood the world - from rabid hellhounds to towering archdemons. With every minute, chaos creeps closer… You must survive, adapt, and carve your own path to victory.
7 unique classes: Warrior, Mage, Lord, Artisan, Leader, Necromancer, and Peasant. From brutal combat to dark necromancy - each class unlocks a distinct path to triumph.
Every choice matters:
Will you risk the fog of war for epic loot or play it safe clearing secure regions?
Buy, seize, or forge the gear you need?
Crush your foes, bribe them, or slip by unseen?
Strengthen your allies or focus all power on yourself?
Core mechanics:
Exploration & combat: journey through a procedurally generated world, uncover ruins and dungeons, and battle the forces of Hell.
Economy & construction: gather rare materials, build, upgrade structures, and trade to gain the upper hand.
Squad & progress: recruit allies, empower your party, and develop unique skills.
Equipment & magic: forge legendary weapons, enhance them, and unleash devastating spells to turn the tide of battle.
Paths to victory: Conquer through strength, magic, economy, or cunning craftsmanship - the choice is yours. Will you be the one to seal the Gates of Hell?
Enjoy Sandbox mode at your own pace, or test your limits in Nightmare mode, where even starting as a humble peasant can become a fatal mistake.
Add to your Wishlist - and rise as the hero who will close the Gates of Hell!
