Descent: A classic 3-D first-person shooter (2012)
A few years ago Descent3 was modernized by Icculus(Ryan Gordon) to play on modern hardware running Linux and released thru Steam. The old version was unable to run on modern distros. The new released version uses SDL2 and runs nicely on modern hardware even the SteamDeck. Anyway it has some bugs which hopefully can be addressed if more people chime in. Find the bugtracker on github: https://github.com/icculus/descent3-bugs/issues

Descent was WAY ahead of its time. First fully 3D FPS ever made.
And that's the first level of Descent. :) I literally just started a brand-new game yesterday of Descent. DX-Rebirth.

32-bit software on a 64-bit OS
Find a remake of the game ported to a modern engine. https://www.dxx-rebirth.com/ appears to be a port of Descent 1 and 2 to the Source engine. It won't help with you running the 3DFX version, of course, but this might actually be better?

One of the best multiplayers I grew up on.
I loved this game. You can still play it with DXX Rebirth

Does anyone know if the physical expansions work on the Steam versions?
I would look at DXX rebirth, https://www.dxx-rebirth.com even if you just want to add the expansions to your steam version, you should be able to use its instructions to add the levels to your version.

Do native Linux Games that are listed as unsupported on Steam Deck still run?
Descent 2 - so long since I last played any Descent game I forgot how the experience was, but hey there's a source port!

What dial up sounded like
Or if you still want to play the originals, the DXX Rebirth mods also make it easy to play on modern computers!
