It's a pay-what-you-want FOSS PC game based on Touhou Project… By which I mean it's got Reimu, Marisa, Youmu, Cirno, Yuyuko and the rest, so it is really for most intents and purposes just another Touhou game — just, a Touhou game not developed by Zun or given his explicit stamp of approval… But why should that matter, right?

You can get Taisei Project off Linux Mint's software manager and everything, or you can play it in your browser on the official website. This freaking rocks!! I mean it is incredibly difficult, but I knew it would be going in. I just think it's really cool that this exists.

How do you think Taisei Project compares with Zun's original games? Is "mainline" Touhou worth trying to get into? How would I go about playing those games on Linux?

The newer games are on Steam, older games can be found at Moriya Shrine (also the newer games if you want to pirate-jammin ).

I haven't tried every single old game but every one I have so far has worked with whatever defaults are installed with Lutris

Seems like you need an account confirmed by e-mail to download from that site? Hm.
