I get the free games via the site but I dont use windows so I’ve never even tried to play them. I’d rather support valve who have really went all in on Linux gaming.

I know it is possible to get some of epic ones working via lutris but I’m not that bothered to be honest.

For what it’s worth, the Heroic Games launcher works out of the box for me on Mint, it also handles GOG

You can also log into your Epic/Gog/Origin/Ubisoft accounts via Lutris and install the games via that.
