Gaming on Linux is pretty good for general info and forums.
Don't assume that the websites telling you which game will/won't work are reliable - I've found they're wrong about 25-50% of the time.
However, a lot of games have a native Linux version or run through Proton (which you can opt into based on the games Steam says are tested, or you can just try everything through Linux).
The only way to be sure, if there's not a native port, is to try running the game.
