Linux games?

What's the best open source single-player game for Linux?

Depends on the genre.

Personally I like:

neverputt - An insanely addictive golfing game. (Better than it sounds).

pioneers - A good implementation of Settlers of Catan.

tremulous - A first-person shooter.

crawl - A text-based dungeon adventure game.

frozen-bubble - The classic puzzle-bobble clone.

clanbomber - A clone of Bomberman. Sucky graphics though :(

koules - A single-player space-ship based shooter. Addictive but hard.

Thanks! I thought Tremulous was multiplayer-only, no?

You might be right. The rest definitely aren't.

(I only played that at Debconf but I was pretty sure it had bots / AI play..)

Honest to God: Frozen Bubble is why we run Ubuntu here. redcountess saw it at ruthi's, begged her laptop be converted to Ubuntu, and so I shifted mine to 5.04 because FreeBSD 5 wasn't happy with the hardware. GOD HELP ME.

I've got to agree. What the world needs is a LiGNUx-compatible Compiz-compatible adventure game. Preferably with with some Doctor Who/Douglas Adams references. That'll sort the planet out. ;o)

GnuGo? :)

Otherwise - freeciv.
