I haven't played Warsow in years, so I don't know what state the game or community is in. It's a fast paced FPS multiplayer that turned the old bunnyhopping exploit into a central feature iirc.

OpenRA, MineTest, Veloren
How do you run OpenRA? I've tried both flatpak and snap and it didn't work. It gets stuck on the first screen asking about downloading content but I cannot click anything.
Just don't use flatpak or snap. I'll bet anything that switching off flatpak/snap will solve all your issues. Just check the downloads page on the OpenRA site and find whatever works on your system.

The flatpak has been working for me on Linux Mint, although the flatpak didn’t work on Ubuntu proper. From what I understand the Mint devs do some extra tinkering to support flatpaks better than vanilla Ubuntu. Have you tried downloading the binary and running it from a terminal?
The Appimage also works well for me on my Ubuntu XFCE box.
I will try the AppImage. I tried it with other games and it worked fine. flatpak sucks.
ScummVM supports many many games. Some people might think it's an emulator, but it's actually a collection of reverse engineered game engines.
eDuke32 and other Build Engine source ports
Unciv is pretty cool and portable.
OpenRCT (not totally free but a damn impressive project nonetheless)

My favorite: cataclysm dda, flare rpg, oolite.

ClassicUO is a nice open source client for Ultima Online. Need to have the game assets.

Taisei Project for Touhou and other 2D bullet-hell shooter fans (I recommend installing it instead of playing online).
I really liked Speed Dreams when I played it years ago. Never heard anyone else talk about it. Warsow and Red Eclipse were also good.
Amagettron advanced en soldat are fun games (not sure if they're open source)
