My top answers are of course Kerbal Space Program, Dwarf Fortress and Stellaris.
However, all those have been mentioned already, so, to add something new to the list: Pathfinder: Kingmaker. It is currently my favourite cRPG.
Edit: Since you mentioned "Great Linux ports": Kingmaker has a game-breaking bug in the Linux version regarding Gamepad input. However, as long as you play it with mouse and keyboard (as the gods intended - insert PC Master Race meme), the Linux version is working perfectly fine. However, if you plan on playing it on the Steam Deck, you might want to play the Windows build.
Great ones!
There are sometimes interesting setbacks with Linux ports.
Yep. With Kingmaker it was extra annoying, because the game has Steam Deck Verified rating, and the Steam Deck defaults to the Linux build.
Thing is, you can play through the whole first chapter of the game with a gamepad without issues... However, once you unlock the Kingdom Management screen, you run into the bug, which is a soft-lock once you open said screen. The UI doesn't properly initialize, all text fields remain at their default value, and you cannot make any inputs any more. Luckily the ESC-Menu still works, so you can save your progress...
If it weren't for the Steam Deck, I guess very few people would have run into this bug, if any at all. Kingmaker has a different UI if played with a gamepad, and even though Kingmaker's gamepad-UI is done really well, it is clear that it is meant for playing the game on a TV screen (think: consoles). If you are sitting right in front of your screen (PC), the UI you see when playing with mouse and keyboard is superior in each and every aspect.
There are so many comments that I get rate limited. This will take a while, so I can read and answer every comment that I got.
Too many requests, try again later.
Since no one mentioned XCOM 2 I'll pick that. For some reason it only lets me play it with War of the Chosen expansion, though, and it's very difficult. But I have fun getting my squad wiped because I'm masochist like that.
Gaming on the GNU/Linux operating system.
