A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Tetris (NES) on Lutris on CachyOS. Good times :)
I’ve never been good at Tetris. My wife, on the other hand, used to do competitions. We’ve played Tetris duel or whatever it’s called (the two player competitive one) and she completely destroyed me every time.
I'm not good at it either, but I like playing it anyway. Sometimes I watch the pros play on the ClassicTetris YouTube channel. It's nice to watch, I'll never reach that level but I'm okay with that.
There’s a Tetris clone you can play in the Linux terminal, I’ve messed around with before. Pretty fun. I can’t remember what it’s called now but I’d recommend looking it up if you like Tetris. It’s pretty cool.
