Jagged Alliance 2: Unfinished Business	Titan Computer (Tribsoft)	2000
Small Rockets Poker	Small Rockets	2000	A game of skill and luck... Poker is played all over the world. It has been called the national card game of the United States and is by far one of the most popular betting games in western civilisation[sic]. Poker can take on many forms and it has become a highly evolved game of great skill. Unlike other card games, Poker relies not only on the player's ability to place cunning bets, but also, the player must be able to strategically out-maneuver their opponent in a strange dance of raises, calls, and checks. It is no wonder that terms such as 'poker face' have leaked into our mainstream when we talk about people lying or bluffing!***A proprietary commercial game.
Small Rockets Backgammon	Small Rockets	2000	Backgammon is a classic board game that has been played in one form or another since the 1500s. The basics of the game are simple to learn: each player has a number of counters placed on a distinctive black and red board, the objective being to return all counters safely to the player's home area. However, at any point counters can be captured by your opponent, turning the tables and radically altering the course of the game. The SmallRockets version of Backgammon has a host of features including multiple skill levels and game options, and should appeal equally to the Backgammon beginner as to the experienced player.***A proprietary commercial game.

Mobility: A City in Motion	Wacky Germans (Glamus)	2001	This is a proprietary game. Certainly this game resembles SimCity and visually looks like SimCity 2000 and you build rods and Residential, commercial, and industrial zones. However, this focus of this game is traffic simulation, traffic congestion, pollution, studying and finding solutions to these and related problems.. [Zerothis]
Odyssey by Car	Oliver Hamann Software	2001	This is a proprietary game. Requires kernel 2.2, ELF, X11R6 with 16 bit color, glibc 2.1, XFree86 3.3.6, Pentium 400+, 32MB RAM, 50MB drive space, CD-ROM. Also recommended is /dev/dsp sound, /dev/js0..3 or /dev/input/js0..3 joystick, XF86VidMode fullscreen, MIT Shared Memory Extension and OpenGL [Zerothis]
Ultima VII: The Black Gate	author (Origin)	2001	Thanks to a game engine called Exult, Ultima VII: The Black Gate and its addon The Forge of Virtue can be played on a variety of platforms. Plus a few enhancements. Tags: The character can move seamlessly from above ground to under ground, up or down stars, in and out of buildings, on and off of rooftops, in and out of ships, and take to the air and land. Various magical transportation occurs. The 8th canonical game in the Ultima series and the first game in Ultima's Age of Armageddon. (Ultima Underworld is canonical, prequil of this game, and the 7th in the series). But, it was never intended to run on Linux. This, and other exult enhancements are sufficient to mark this game as uncanonical. Exult uses SDL for the Linux version with an OpenGL option. The player and party can use crossbows and bows. Ingredients can be mixed to bake bread and other things. Cheese is available as food. A variety of items can be crafted into other items. There are pumpkin fields in the game, from which pumpkins can be harvested. Flight of the Bumblebee is played at one point, Rule Britannia is overplayed. There are several prisoners in the game and this plays into the plot more than once. An addictive medicine in the game is abused by characters and can be abused by the player's character and party, with consequences. Unicorns are mentioned by in-game books and by characters[spoiler=and;and]one can be found by the player also.[/spoiler]. And some coder with nothing better to do has given the engine dance mat compatibility. [Zerothis]

F1 Spirit	Brain Games (Brain Games;Konami)	2004	After our remake of Road Fighter in 2003 we decided was time to remake another racing game. This time we chose for Konami's MSX1 classic F1-Spirit! In only three months of development time, the game had to be finished. When you read this, the competition has already ended. Out of 73 submitted entries, we finished at the 13th place. Of course you can read what the judges had to say about our remake.
XUltima IV	author	2004	Choices for installing. 1. Ultima Arcanum PPA (as of 2014-08-01, I recommend this option for Ubuntu users) 2. Acquire and convert the RPM to DEB 3. Compile from source Check here for resources <http://xu4.sourceforge.net/download.php> Acquire the original Ultima VI, v1.01 perferred. Optionally, acquire the VGA patch. =================================================================== 1. Ultima Arcanum PPA =================================================================== $sudo apt-add-repository ppa:dallen.wilson/ultima $sudo apt-get install xu4 OR for compiling: $sudo apt-add-repository ppa:dallen.wilson/ultima $sudo apt-get source xu4 The PPA has versions for Maverick and Trusty but the package doesn't enforce these versions (may install on any version of Ubuntu). =================================================================== 2. One simple way for DEB systems is to install the dependencies and convert and install the RPM to DEB using alien in a terminal =================================================================== [code]$sudo apt-get update $sudo apt-get install alien libsdl1.2 libsdl-mixer1.2 libxml2 timidity $sudo alien -di xu4-1.0beta3-1.i386.rpm[/code] The RPM package provided by the creators will convert to deb with no problems to DEB platforms (Alien or another package converter) up to version 1.0beta2 (beta3 and beta4 fail due to dependencies). The source code will also compile easily on ubuntu systems. Dallen Wilson's Ultima Arcanum PPA has source and deb packages for Ubuntu Maverick and Trusty (which covers all version between). The Trusty build is provided daily. =================================================================== 2. How to Compile xu4 from SVN in Ubuntu (and possibly other NIXum) =================================================================== In Terminal: [code]$sudo apt-get install alien build-essential checkinstall libxml2-dev libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev subversion timidity[/code] Acquire the latest xu4 source code: [code]$svn co https://xu4.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xu4 xu4[/code] These directories may need to be created first. It harms nothing to run this command anyway: [code]$sudo mkdir /usr/local/share/pixmaps /usr/local/lib/u4 /usr/local/share/applications/[/code] Enter the main xu4 source directory and build the project: [code]$cd xu4/trunk/u4/src make clean make[/code] Use your package manager to remove any older version of xu4 you have Now to install: $sudo checkinstall -Dy --pkgname xu4-mybuild --arch i386 Check install will create a deb file with a name similar to xu4-mybuild_20110730_i386.deb (based on the pkgname you chose and the date of the svn) Use "--arch amd64" with checkinstall if you built for 64-bit (and are not on 64-bit, likewise "--arch i386" will build a 32-bit version). Use "-Sy" to build a Slackware package Use "-Ry" to build an RPM package Slackware and RPM have additional options that can be investigated with: $man checkinstall To get the latest xu4 again, go to the directory that contains the xu4 directory and enter: $svn update xu4 These steps must be done every time to compile from source. 2014 These instructions no longer work on Ubuntu 12.04 precise and must be modified. I have found no RPM that converts successfully due to additional package requirements that will not function properly after converting. instead, use [code]$svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/xu4/code/trunk xu4-code[/code]**The xu4 game engine is a standalone Ultima IV clone also capable of running the original or VGA patched versions of Ultima IV on a variety of platforms. It is also capable of running new RPGs. xu4 Also allows extensive modding of the graphics, enemies, items, and certain game logic. To date (2014), no totaly conversions or hacks have been created to utilized these features (I guess the developers got UIV perfect on the first try :) The full version of Ultima IV for DOS was 'made available for free download' at selected sites by Origin (subsequently purchased by Electronic Arts). However, it remains proprietary and not defined as "freeware" or "public domain" (these downloads can disappear or the priced raised at any time at Electronic Art's option). Several homebrew upgrades exist for this game that add features such as VGA graphics and Midi sound. xu4 can used these upgrades as well, or simply recreated the original DOS experience (or the Amiga experience, for that matter). The xu4 project allows this game to run on Linux, Mac OS 8, Mac OS X, Windows, and other operating systems. The Ultima series continued to innovate with the release of each game in the series. With the 4th game released for Apple ][ and then ported to IBM-PC, the genre was taken to bran new places. And now, playable on Linux. There is no evil big bad enemy to defeat, and the point of the game is not to take advantage of people to get stuff to go defeat the enemy. Rather, the point of the game is for the main character to become a champion of virtue. The goals are literally honesty, humility, honor, spirituality, valor, justice, compassion, sacrifice, courage, truth, and love. Actions, inactions, even words can have less than apparent unhelpful or helpful consequences. Yes, there are still monsters to fight and treasures to find, but this makes up less than 1/8th of the game and the care and purpose in handling these things is more important than the end result.

İstanbul Efsaneleri	Raks New Media (SiliconWorx)	2005	The game takes place in a parallel world where various things from our past, both real and fantastic, are still around. The game notably makes user of digitised video of live action actors in 'period' sets and costume. The main mode and combat mode together look and function very similar to an [url=/groups/info/goldboxengine]AD&D Gold Box[/url] game.***İstanbul Efsaneleri (Legends of Istanbul) saga is a humourous fairy tale taking place in a fantasy world. It is comprised of fantastic and funny stories in a suspiciously contemporary-feeling setting which resembles the current world we live in, but with a twist. This mystical city also known as "İstanbul" for short, is not only a fun setting with a potential of incredible incidents taking place in its dark alleys, where tragi-comic stories of adventure, suspense, love, betrayal and laughter are revealed, but also a fantasy land where "Silikon Baba" (Father Silicon), with his white beard, looks for adventurers from dawn till dusk and from dusk till dawn. This strangely familiar city of "Istanbul" forms the basis of the legend, with its Maganda's, Memur's, Lavuk's (general stereotypes of people found in Turkish public life) and various other non-human races and monsters dwelling in its streets, extraordinary animals, meta-pyshical incidents and an aura of fun that encompasses it. The great history of this city, from the far past to the not-so-far future, is told in an absurd comedy style. This humourous fantastic history which stretches form the ancient times that are fading from memory to the times in a forseeable future, includes strange mythical events taking place anywhere in that stretch, barbarian raids, rabbit races, complicated conspiracies, wars taking place among the city dwellers, Cooncan parties (a popular pastime among the elderly) and of course amazing and unique stories about acts of heroism.
Operation: Pedopriest	Molleindustria	2005	An original serious [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juvenalian_satire#Types_of_Satire]Juvenalian satirical[/url] game fully developed by Molleindustria to call attention to the molestation of children by catholic clergy. Despite hasty opinions drawn by people who have little to no firsthand familiarity with the game or the crimes that inspired it, this is a carefully planned game designed to disseminate information, educate, and induce horror.

Passage	HC Software	2007	This description is one big set of spoilers (see the [url=/game-173178-Passage#art3]official description[/url]) for a spoiler free experience. [spoiler=open spoilers;close spoilers]This is an interactive Memento Mori. The Latin phrase mean "Remember you die" and it referes to a specific subset of art designed to remind the audience of their inevitable death. There is only one permenent death of the protagonist(s) which is based on the author's own (the game is autobiographical). Though the author had not actually passed away yet. There are no saves. Time passes regardless of what the player does. The view slowly passes the protagonist(s). The ultra wide (6.25:1) default view is representative of a passage. The protagonist(s) are passing away. It is intended that one can run the game from the command-line to add to the game experience. It is intended that one edit the unusually stored settings in /etc/passage/ to add to the game experience. Various life events are represented in the game, including romance and marriage. These events can have lasting consequences. [/spoiler] [Zerothis]***Passage is a video game written by Jason Rohrer about navigating the maze that is life and the obstacles, rewards, disappointments, challenges, relationships and the inevitable departure that is part of the adventure of life. Passage is an art game. As a result, some people love it and some people hate it. Check out the links to places it has been discussed on the website for some of the reactions. The mechanics of the game are fairly simple. Your "score" is related to two things; exploration and treasure. Treasure pieces are represented by blue stars that you find in the treasure chests scattered about the maze of life's challenges. Some chests will be empty, so you must learn which sequence of gems on the front of the chests means treasure is inside. You have the option to team up with a spouse. If you do, exploring life will be more rewarding but some treasure will no longer be reachable. As in life, your spouse will die and that death will slow you down. In the end, you will die alone after your 5 minutes is up. The most interesting part about this game is the emotions it evokes within the player of the game. The ultra-low-res pixel art helps here, by not being too distracting and by leaving plenty room for viewer interpretation. Passage has no command-line options. The arrow keys move the player around. The Esc key is used to quit the game. The game resolution and use of fullscreen or a window can be set by editing the files in /etc/passage.
