Atomix — образовательная игра для GNOME, в которой необходимо создавать молекулы из отдельных атомов, начиная от простых неорганических и заканчивая очень сложными органическими.

Первые уровни достаточно просты, но с каждым последующим уровнем сложность увеличивается и на один уровень может потребоваться уже несколько минут (или гораздо больше).

Blinken is based on an electronic game released in 1978, which challenges players to remember sequences of increasing length. On the face of the device, there are 4 different color buttons, each with its own distinctive sound. These buttons light up randomly, creating the sequence that the player must then recall. If the player is successful in remembering the sequence of lights in the correct order, they advance to the next stage, where an identical sequence with one extra step is presented.

This package is part of the KDE education module.

CGoban (Complete Goban) is a computerized board on which you can play the game of Go against another player, view and edit smart-go files, and connect to Go servers on the internet. It can also interface with computer Go programs such as GNU Go that speak the Go modem protocol. Some sort of image converter is needed if you wish to use the utility provided to capture "screen shots" of a CGoban game.

Go is an ancient game originated from China, with a definite history of over 3000 years, although there are historians who say that the game was invented more than 4000 years ago. The Chinese call the game Weiqi, other names for Go include Baduk (Korean), Igo (Japanese), and Goe (Taiwanese).

In this game, each player tries to exert more influence on territory than her opponent, using threats of death, capture, or isolation. It is, therefore, a symbolic representation of the relationships between nations. Go is getting increasingly popular around the world, especially in Asian, European and American countries, with many worldwide competitions being held.

The game of Go is played on a board. The Go set is comprised of the board, together with 181 black and 180 white stones. The standard board has 19 lines by 19 lines, but 13x13 and 9x9 boards can also be used. However, the 9x9 and 13x13 boards are usually for beginners; more advanced players would prefer the traditional 19x19 board.

Compared to International Chess and Chinese Chess, Go has far fewer rules. Yet this allowed for all sorts of moves to be played, so Go can be a more intellectually challenging game than the other two types of Chess. Nonetheless, Go is not a difficult game to learn, so have a fun time playing the game with your friends.

Einstein -- это логическая головоломка, написанная по мотивам старой досовской игры Sherlock, которая в свою очередь была написана по мотивам головоломки Эйнштейна. Эйнштейн утверждал, что только 2% людей обладают интеллектом, достаточным для её решения. Цель игры -- узнать расположение всех фишек, пользуясь подсказками и логикой.

GNU Go - свободная программа, позволяющая играть в Го. Она обеспечивает только текстовый интерфейс пользователя, имеет графику в пакетах cgoban или qgo, если вы желаете играть на графической доске.

Го - древняя игра родом из Китая, с определенной историей продолжительностью более 3000 лет, хотя есть историки, считающие, что игра была изобретена более чем 4000 лет назад. Китайцы называют игру Weiqi, другие имена Го таковы: Baduk (корейское), Igo (японское), и Goe (тайваньское).

В этой игре каждый игрок пытается оказать больше влияния на игровом поле, чем его оппонент, используя угрозы смерти, захвата, или изоляции. Следовательно, это символическое представление взаимоотношений между нациями. Го обретает всё растущую популярность по всему миру, особенно в азиатских, европейских и американских странах, проводится множество мировых соревнований.

Игра Го происходит на доске. Набор Го содержит доску вместе со 181 черным и 180 белыми камнями. Стандартная доска имеет размер 19 на 19 линий, но также могут использоваться доски 13х13 и 9х9. Тем не менее, доски 9х9 и 13х13 обычно для новичков; более продвинутые игроки предпочитают традиционную доску 19х19.

По сравнению с интернациональными шахматами или китайскими шахматами, Го имеет намного меньше правил. Позволяются все типы ходов для игры, так что Го может считаться более интеллектуально напрягающей игрой, чем два других типа шахмат. Тем не менее, Го - не трудная для обучения игра, так что наслаждайтесь этой игрой со своими друзьями.

XBoard is a graphical chessboard that can serve as a user interface for chess programs, for the Internet Chess Server, or for electronic mail correspondence chess. It supports all major forms of chess, such as international chess, xiangqi and shogi. XBoard can also be used by itself as viewer for stored chess games.

XBoard uses the Helvetica font (located in the xfonts-75dpi and xfonts-100dpi packages) by default. However, other fonts can be specified via a command line option or an X resource.

The package is enhanced by the following packages: hachu phalanx
