https://freelinuxpcgames.com/ the website doesn't look malicious but would like if anyone has proof otherwise I know there's torminatorr, but I would like some direct download websites for Linux since I can't seed while pirating because my ISP has limited bandwidth of 1 TB and my fascist country Iran has $300 minimum wage and I have better ways to use that than seeding, but I don't like leeching EDIT: seems the website is malicious I guess I'm forced to leech or use proton with steamrip games

I would say this website is very suspicious. If you download anything, try to find the same game from different sources and do a binary comparison if the game binary code is the same.

Website is totally fine as a page listing native games, but you should avoid downloading binaries from unknown sources.

Why? Example:

World of Goo 2 Is not a "free" game. Suggesting to download the game from torrenta is very sus. At least it is a pirated copy, unless this game have some hidden git repo where you can compile the game for free for yourself and it it used. At worse it is a infected copy with some virus/backdor/data stealer.
