I'm looking for recommendations for my Linux setup. But shattered pixel dungeon is amazing on android

Not really, wc3 and hl are definitely more "gamey" than Minetest, but you can still install Minetest to play and mod Minetest.

Minetest is the game that comes bundled with Minetest.

Minetest Game is the game that comes bundled with Minetest, not Minetest. Nobody said WC3 and HL is a game engine.

Horrible naming scheme, and I don't think I've seen the Minetest Game ever mentioned as anything but just Minetest.

It's not a naming scheme, it's just the default and everything makes it clear that Minetest is the engine. It's kinda the example game.
