How to install Lutris - An Open Gaming Platform for Linux

A new tutorial on how to install Lutris on Ubuntu. Lutris is an open source gaming platform for GNU/Linux. It allows you to gather and manage (install, configure and launch) all your games acquired from any source, in a single interface.

No games are sold on this platform, you have to provide your own copy of the games unless they are Open Source or Freeware. The games can be installed anywhere you want on your system, the tool does not impose anything.
