TARTARUS first person game with action elements gets a Linux release on Steam and Humble Store, worth a buy. The games set in terrifyingly dark sci-fi universe. And also discounted 60% during the Winter Sale.

In TARTARUS, you will play as Cooper. While trying to hack the ship’s system‘s via using “Terminals”. Hacking the ship is the real challenge. So yYou have to use specific Terminal commands.

TARTARUS has retro style elements like iconic sci-fi movies.
