Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance	Interplay Entertainment (Square One Games)	2021	Requires a 64-bit CPU and 32-bit libraries intalled. Because wine developers make bad Linux developers? Bad Linux developers are better than none at all; this game is native.
Lurking I: Immortui	oklabsoft	2020	A retro style RPG in look and feel. No hand-holding, no hint system, no metaprotection, and no step-by-step instructions. Talk to NPCs most information required. Permadeath is an option. Also, the rate at which the player can expect encounters has three levels to choose from. There is bare minimal (and skippable) story provided before the party is tossed into the wide open world. The player must speak to people to advance the plot and find the clues to discover the path to victory over evil. The evil that needs defeating must also be discovered. Games of this type from the early 1980s often came with maps, an instruction book, and one way or another had charts, monster lists, spell lists as such. Lurking provides equivalent information, but it is all provided by NPCs in-game and must be sought out by the player. Lurking began as an Apple ][ game in 1986. It was inspired by Ultima III. It later became a Windows game written in Visual Basic. The version of this game entry comes from a C language rewrite. It has some helpful modern features, such as a BACK option to see previous dialog in conversations and auto mapping, but nothing to make the game as easy as most modern CRPGs. Character creation is a matter of distributing 20 points to attributes and skills with no other restriction except 20 points. Some stats are derived from these with a random addition of up to 10% (it seems). The player can create a roster of 12 characters and play with [spoiler=one to five characters;hide DROP and ADD] one to five characters at any time by finding a particular NPC and asking said NPC to DROP or ADD them.[/spoiler]. Skills and attributes each have their own upgrade system [spoiler=that;hide upgrade hint] that a particular NPC will explain[/spoiler]. Experience points and levels will be needed. There is a README provided with the game that suggests the first NPC to talk to but also says to talk to everyone everywhere. Some NPCs seem to be present at first only for world-building but it is implied in the README that every NPC will (eventually) provide important information. "Immortui" is Latin for Undead(Zombies). But don't worry, this not a Zombie game. "Lurking" is English.

Adds force-feedback, haptic feedback. Sensible features like guards break your fall if you land on them, slamming into a wall will shake nearby loose tiles (so you don't have to step on them or jump up into them) and Iaido strikes (draw and strike in a single stroke). Finally, there are built-in cheats. You can, for example, play with more time, less time, or infinite time. A young foreign prince is in love with the Princess.

Jaffar kidnaps the foreign prince and locks him in the dungeon. In 1 hour, the Princess must marry the Jaffar or be killed. Play as the foreign prince. Solve puzzles, find items, find a sword, fight guards, escape and save the Princess.

Blasphemer	author	2012	Heretic has several open source engine choices. But playing the game initially required purchasing the proprietary data (or downloading the proprietary shareware version). Blasphemer is a project to replace proprietary Heretic data with non-proprietary data. Thus allowing players to enjoy a complete Heretic-like game with no proprietary entanglements. Turn enemies into multiple gibs in this dark fantasy 1st-person shooter. Look up and down (sort of). Features inventory manipulation, environmental interaction, use magic, find powerups that improve [b]all[/b] the weapons you are carrying, and the ability to fly. These are in addition to the features seen in its predecessor, Doom.

Arx Libertatis	?

Lost Isle	author	2007	[WIP] On the one hand it just feels like full color Link's Awakening. On the other hand, the gameplay doesn't quite resemble any official game from the Zelda series.***A Zelda style adventure using the Zelda Classic/ZQuest engine. Designed by a collaborative team instead of a single author, unusual for a ZQ game. Uses a custom versions of the Zelda Classic engine and is Mac, Linux,and Windows specific. Using other versions of Zelda Classic that the one made for Lost Isle may cause detrimental glitches. UPDATE: However, a 2.5 version of this quest exists and does not use the 'lost isle build'. Link finds himself on a once civilized but now deserted and haunted island. Perhaps finding out what happened will lead to a way to escape.
Ardentryst	Project Ardentryst	2007	[quote][...] you can get the source package, which [u]should[/u] run on any system with Python and pygame installed.[/quote] The game seems to be primarily developed on/for Windows. Ubuntu and OpenSUSE packages are also available (by third-parties?). As of 2010-05, the Getdeb package (Ubuntu), is provided by João Pinto, the GetDeb Team Leader (not associated with Ardentryst). However, version 1.71 has been officially tested on and indicated Linux compatible by the Ardentryst team.
