Have you tried Heroic? I’ve heard it supports GOG but I’ve only used it for a couple Epic Games games

I did install a couple of games with Heroic without issues. But @pleb_maximus@feddit.de said they had some kind of problem with it, so I recommended Lutris as an alternative. I haven’t used Heroic in a while though, Lutris seems to work well enough for me.

Yup. It’s basically random which games are installable today.

Currently I can install 6/34 of my games from gog:

Sure, that will work too. Bit it’s more of a hassle than just logging in and clicking “install”.

Man, I have gotten lazy. :/

You can also link your GOG account and install whatever game you want. Once linked, you should only have to click install.
