Ultimate Predator Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Do they exist? I know there are loads of open-source game,s but many are multi-player. Any good single-player ones, that aren't just bots, as in proper missions? I'm asking as my uni house currently doesn't have wireless...

Eldmannen Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Well, click on that link so you nicely linked to, and I am sure you will find some. I played Battle for Wesnoth single-player. Also played SuperTux some. There probably many more, but I don't play so games so much... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultimate Predator Posted March 19, 2008 Author Share Posted March 19, 2008 Neither do I, but sometimes when I'm bored... cheers for the links, found quite a few on; http://freegamer.blogspot.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenknight Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 https://sourceforge.net/ has quite a few. There's one I've been testing, FreeCol (still in development but very playable), for instance. Its a Freeware clone of Colonization, a game by the creator of Civilization that was dropped after 1 version was released - possibly due to political incorrectness. The object is to colonize the New World and achieve independence, which is hard (but not impossible) to do without slaughtering the Indians and stealing their land. Anyway, it can be played single-player or online multi-player. Not a fast-action game, but I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenknight Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 SourceForge has lots of different kinds of games, literally thousands of projects. From their Projects Index: # Games/Entertainment (24692) * Board Games (1958) * Card Games (654) * Console-based Games (482) * First Person Shooters (1462) * Multi-User Dungeons (MUD) (1745) * Puzzle Games (1448) * Real Time Strategy (1326) * Role-Playing (4239) * Side-Scrolling/Arcade Games (1676) * Simulation (2275) * Turn Based Strategy (1636) Some of those are too unfinished to be playable, and some are game engines rather than actual games - but I expect you could find something you'd like.
