Sopwith SDL Simon Howard (SDL port) www 1.7.1 SDL port of the classic DOS game Sopwith (From the Sopwith FAQ):<br> Sopwith and its much-improved successor, Sopwith 2, is a CGA game designed for both single player play, and also equipped to handle up to 8 players in multiplayer mode (4 human, 4 computer). It is a side-scrolling biplane action game involving two sides - cyan and magenta. The object of the game in single-player is to destroy all of the enemy buildings and vehicles, either by shooting, bombing, or colliding with them. To stop you, the enemy has deployed planes to shoot you down and buildings that shoot anti-aircraft fire at you. Each level ends when all the enemy buildings and vehicles are destroyed, and is followed by a faster and more difficult level with the same map. action free img on on on off on on 2002-10-04 2 2002-10-04 23:12:04 -1 SDL 2002-10-27 14:23:34 on

NetHack The Nethack DevTeam www www Linux Nethack binaries on Sunsite news://rec.games.roguelike.announce Roguelikes Newsgroup 3.4.3 The classic dungeon crawling rpg. This is the biggest of all the roguelike games. Descend to the deepest levels of Gehennom to retrieve the Amulet of Yendor, while acquiring weapons and magic and building your character's skills. I highly recommend the X11 version, which uses a custom font and better graphics. There is also a version which uses the Qt toolkit for X11, which is quite pretty. See the Qt NetHack web page for more details. rpg free img on on on off off off 1998-09-01 2 1998-11-02 17:05:00 14 www www Debian GNU/Linux package of Nethack 2003-12-09 12:51:05 on

This is an excellent multiplayer action game. It's sort of like a wireframe Maelstrom, only you can play against many other people either on your own or as a team. There's a large variety of goodies like mines, lasers, multiple shots, and cloaking devices. Requires a fast net connection and preferably an accelerated video card. action free img on on off off on on 1998-09-01 bobz 1998-11-02 23:14:59 14 ftp://ftp.xpilot.org/pub/ 2002-10-29 12:44:54 on
