Debian Games Text Games

The principal virtue of these games is their simplicity. They will run on any hardware, and some of them are simple enough to control so that very young children can enjoy them (e.g. snake)

The list to the right includes various software projects which are of some interest to the Debian Games Project. Currently, only a few of them are available as Debian packages. It is our goal, however, to include all software in Debian Games which can sensibly add to a high quality Debian Pure Blend.

For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:

If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Games to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to send a description of that project to the Debian Games mailing list

You think of an animal, and this package tries to guess it... when it's wrong, you teach it about your animal.

To be more flexible and help educational aspect this game does not contain an initial database. This also allows it to be used for non animals like guessing of tools or locations.

This version includes experimental support for sound and thus requires a soundcard to run!
