I am an absolute Linux baby running Mint23(?) on my PC. I wanted to play an ancient game from my childhood that I cherished but I don’t really know how to get it off the Internet Archive onto my computer.

The game

Any suggestions?

    This is just invoking a command, it’s basically the same as double-clicking a .exe in Windows, just without a mouse. There’s no need to “learn coding” to do this. Coding involves complex logic; this doesn’t.

    The biggest put off to Linux is the absolute shit community it has

    Have you ever given it a shot? Most Linux users I’ve encountered are very friendly. Yes, there are some boards (like Arch forums) where people get pissy at noobs; however Arch isn’t a noob-friendly distro, in contrast to Mint/openSUSE etc.

    Attitude matters as well; if you start off by shitting on stuff you have limited knowledge of, you won’t get a friendly response.
