Re: Top open source game?

Here is a list of a couple open source games. it is in german but since it's only a list (aka name - link, name - link, ...) that shouldn't matter.

Re: Top open source game?

For me it's Sauerbraten, DXX-Rebirth (original data files still required), and maybe Nethack.

Re: Top open source game?

The Battle for Wesnoth is surely one of the best games for me, Tremulous is quite nice as well. Nethack is fantastic. Also Frozen Bubble is nicely done.

Re: Top open source game?

Battle for Wesnoth, Frozen Bubble, Project: Starfighter, OpenTTD

I am not sure if OpenTTD really counts as an open-source game since it isn't possible to play it without some non-free game data.

Re: Top open source game?

For me, it is FreeCol. FreeCol is an open source clone of the 1994 Colonization game from Microprose. It is a turn based strategy game that is being very actively developed. If you download the tar.gz file you don't need to compile anything, just un-tar it, read the readme and play.

Re: Top open source game?

others all have this 'homebrew' feeling, but neverball stands out, it really feels like a commercial quality game.
