Squish the evil Bills before they infect your computers with the Windows virus. |
An evil hacker known only as "Bill" has created a virus which resembles a popular operating system. This virus has the potential of turning even the most powerful computer into nothing more than a toaster. As a sysadmin, your job is to squish the evil Bill clones before they can infect your computers with the Wingdows virus. The latest version has more OS icons (including the Linux penguin), and LANs which can spread the virus to networked computers. This is incredibly cute; every anti-Microsoft Linux fan should see this. |

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. |

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. |

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. |

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. |

2.0.5 |
An X11 version of the Pente board game. |
This is an implementation of the Asian strategy game ni-nuki, which is a version of go-moku. Players place stones on a grid, and the first person to either place five in a row, or capture five pairs of his opponent's stones, wins. Two humans can play at the same terminal, but not (yet) across a network. |

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. |
