Some FOSS games I've been playing recently
cross-posted from: sh.itjust.works/post/31042099
- SuperTuxKart
I really like this game because it's basically just FOSS Mario Kart. It has a lot of gamemodes, an (admittedly simple) kart stat system, many tracks and a lot of mods.
- OpenTTD
In OpenTTD, you transport cargo and people to different places. You can transport them using trains, buses, aeroplanes (airplanes if your American), boats and trams if you add a NewGRF (a mod). It is very addictive and it is quite easy to get into (except the signals).
- Pingus
It's FOSS Lemmings with penguins.
- Extreme Tux Racer
You play as Tux (or someone else) and slide yourself through terrain while you collect fish. It is fun, however I've found that it can get a bit repetitive. You can design levels, however it's a bit hard to do.
- SuperTux
It's 2D Mario with a penguin. BEST GAME EVER.

But back in 1997, I had the shareware version of Transport Tycoon and I’d come home from school (6th grade) in summer, about 20 minutes walk in 30 degrees heat - my dad would have the dodgy air conditioner on, I’d splash some water on my face and get down to some railroads.
It was a very good time and as an adult I’ve never recaptured that feeling with OpenTTD. But I still install it first thing in every distro.
