| Title | Compatibility | Hardware Tested | Software Tested | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Minecraft | ★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01? | Void Linux | Cannot use the native game launcher, text to speech as they are built for x86. multimc from repos, openjdk 8 or 11, default 4kB page kernel, getting >60fps easily regardless of the resolution (rx 5700 xt), works out of box. https://forums.raptorcs.com/index.php/topic,118.0.html |

| OpenTTD | ★★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Fedora 32 (rawhide) | Works without issues. |
| CorsixTH | ★★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Fedora 32 (rawhide) | Works without issues. |

| Minetest | ★★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Debian 10.2 | Works without issues. |
| Trigger Rally | ★★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Debian 10.2 | Controller/joy input must be enabled in ~local/share/trigger-rally/trigger-rally-0.6.6.config with "<joystick enable="yes">". |
| Flightgear | ★★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Debian 10.2 | Flightgear handles the audio device independently, switching between Blackbird's onboard and a GPU's audio output must be done in-game. |
| Redeclipse | ★★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Debian 10.2 | Works without issues. |
| Warzone 2100 | ★★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Debian 10.2 | Works without issues. |

| Xonotic | ★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Debian 10.6 | Infrequently locks up the desktop session requiring a hard reset. I have yet to determine the cause. |
| Veloren | ★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Debian 10.6 | Fails to build on nightly rustc due to packed_simd. (error[E0635]: unknown feature mmx_target_feature) Awaiting packed_simd_2 with the 0.3.4 Veloren release. |
| Stunt Rally | ★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Debian 10.6 | Some maps segfault at load time. |
| Barony | ★★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Debian 11.3 | DOPENAL_ENABLED=ON when building, in order to have audio. But this is also true on x86 platforms. |

| Anarch | ★★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Debian 11.2 | Works without issues. Building on Debian requires libgbm-dev and libdrm-dev be installed along with the repo's listed dependencies. |
| Vega Strike | ★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Debian 11.3 | Build fails at ~/engine/src/gfx/background.cpp. Add -Wno-narrowing to compiler flags ~/engine/CMakeLists.txt to workaround. Game runs but skybox rendering is distorted. |
| Tremulous | ★★★★★ | Talos II (T2D9P01?) | Fedora 33 | Single player works, multiplayer untested. https://forums.raptorcs.com/index.php/topic,355.msg2828.html#msg2828 |

| Doom 3 | ★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Fedora 32 (rawhide) | There are still some non-blocker issues that I have found such as font glyph misalignment, however it does not stop you from playing the game https://forums.raptorcs.com/index.php/topic,222.msg1617.html#msg1617 |
| Heroes of Might and Magic 3: Complete edition (VCMI client) | ★★★★ | Blackbird C1P9S01 | Fedora 32 (rawhide) | There are some quirks with video/graphic which seems to be only related to Fedora. https://forums.raptorcs.com/index.php/topic,104.msg936.html#msg936 |
