I am getting some free games on LegacyGames through Prime Gaming. So I thought about redeeming them, but have few questions.

1. Do these games have any intrusive DRM, apart from the launcher? Or are they DRM Free after you download them?
2. Does the launcher work on Linux? Through Lutris maybe?


I hope someone can answer my queries. Thanks in advance.

Necro but I just found this thread now.

So, a while back, I asked their support if their games have DRM, and they confirmed their games are DRM-free after downloading.

Do mind, however, that they only support Windows and you can only download their games through their launcher, so if you care about Linux and/or Mac builds available elsewhere (e.g. here), or to not depend on a specific software (unlike, e.g., here, where you can download from whichever browser you choose), Legacy Games is not a compelling option.

Now, about working on Linux, I don't think I have tried it, only through VMs instead (and the experience was pretty bad; "it's just another launcher", as a certain timeless post says)
Yes. I decided not to get tangled in yet another launcher. Also the games don't seem to be that interesting as well. I was considering an account as Prime gaming offers a free title on the platform from time to time.
