There are great suggestions here, but they are large beefy games. If you want something smaller: Into the Breach

I just installed Endeavour0S on a 2013 13" MacBook Pro last week and it was like every other installation. I had no problems whatsoever. Even with a current KDE Plasma that little thing runs great.

The only mac specific thing I did was install https://github.com/linux-on-mac/mbpfan?tab=readme-ov-file for some fan control.

Interesting, I have the opposite experience. Even with my half assed tinkering it prints just fine. Slow but fine.
