I suppose I have to ask how linear. Like can it be mostly linear while having the chance to explore off the beaten path very briefly? Or like straight up hallway simulator.
Ive been using a site actually to rate games I've played so I'll start listing some of my 5 and 4.5 star games that I would personally consider linear.
5 star games
4.5 star games
I could go on, and some are borderline linear, but these are my faves that mostly involve going from one moment to the next
Edit: the site I've been using. Feel free to check out my list of played games ordered by rating if you want more. I have a lot on there: https://backloggd.com/u/chloyster/games/user-rating/type:played?page=1
Is it recommended to play the other Mother games before 3?
I'm waiting patiently on Astrobot to get within my feasible price range, I adored Playroom :).
Earthbound / mother 2 is also 5 stars for me and can definitely be played before hand. There is overlap in the antagonist and references but otherwise mother 3 takes place an incomprehensible amount of time in the future. I didn't include earthbound since its a tiny bit more backtracky and explory but tbh it's about as linear as m&l superstar saga so I'd def recommend it if you want to play!
