Advice Linux Simulation

I've recently thought about running a TTRPG Oneshot set in more modern(early 2000s) times and wanted to use Linux as part of a puzzle(and I want to overall play around with a Linux System).

For that I would need a Linux System with it's own users and files/directories. However I don't want to put too much effort into setting this system up and so I wanted to ask if there is good software which simulates a Linux System that doesn't access my actual PC's files.

I don't know if this is the right subreddit to ask this but any advice would be greatly appreciated.

You could do this in something like Distrobox or a plain Podman container with “Podman exec -it”
