3. Under the "Developer" section, choose "Set up Linux"
4. Follow the prompts to turn on Linux

Step 2: Download the Game

Step 3: Install and Run the Game

Now, we'll use the terminal to install and run the game. Open a terminal session from your app menu and enter the following commands:

1) unzip BFNSPUE\ Alpha\ 6\ Part\ 2b_Linux.zip
2) chmod 777 BFNSPUE\ Alpha\ 6\ Part\ 2b_Linux/Baldi\'s\ Fun\ New\ School\ Plus\ Ultimate\ Edition.x86_64
