XShisen Masaoki Kobayashi www ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/games/xshisen-1.36.README Xshisen README 1.51 A Mahjongg variation. This is a solitare game played with the traditional Mahjongg tiles. The aim is to remove all pieces from the board, but identical tiles can only be removed if they can be connected with up to three straight lines, with no tiles intervening. It's kind of like xmahjongg, but with different rules. puzzle free img on on off off off off 1998-09-01 bobz 1998-11-02 23:19:09 14 ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/games/xshisen-1.3.tar.gz 6 2001-03-27 07:20:48 off
XMille Keith Packard ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/games/xmille.README Xmille README An X version of the Mille Bournes card game. XMille is an X interface to the Mille Bournes card game. It's a great game, but I would enjoy it more if it supported multiple (human) players. Also, the informative label telling you why you can't play a card isn't wide enough and the text often is truncated. card free img on on off off off off 1998-09-01 bobz 1998-11-02 22:51:02 14 ftp://ftp.x.org/contrib/games/xmille.tar.gz 2002-01-12 17:04:47 off
XPat2 1.07 Several solitaire games for X. An implementation of many solitare card games for X11 including Klondike, Seahaven, and Spider. The cards are beautifully rendered, and the rules for all the games are accessible via the online help. This is the best solitare game I've seen. card free img on on off off off off 1998-09-01 bobz 1998-11-02 23:07:48 14 www 2002-03-27 14:00:23 off
Xmine Paul Falstat www Xmine LSM Entry 1.0.3 An implementation of Minesweeper for X. Xmine is an implementatin of the classic Minesweeper game which looks exactly like the version for that other popular windowing system. The binary, which has Motif statically linked, is a whopping 840k stripped; there's not much bang for the byte here. As minesweeper games go, I think <a href="/show?Xdemineur">Xdemineur</a> is a better deal. strategy free img off on off off off off 1998-09-01 bobz 1998-11-02 22:54:13 14 www 2001-01-07 22:13:10 off

Flying Helmut Hoenig www LSM Entry 6.20 Several billiards games including pool, snooker, cannon, hockey, curling This is a simulation of several billiard games including pool, snooker, and carrom. It was designed as a simulation of moving objects, so it doesn't implement any rules or scoring. The various subgames are minor variations on the theme, such as increased friction, different playing fields, or different ways to control the objects. simulation free img on on off off off off 1998-09-01 bobz 1998-11-02 16:07:58 14 www 2002-08-03 02:47:43 off

XChomp www Charles Vidal's unofficial Xchomp page 1.0 A black and white pacman clone XChomp is a black & white pacman clone. It's not bad, as pacman games go.
