XAtaxx is a strategy game based on Ataxx, a popular arcade video game.
It is a game of position and movement. The object is to have the most
pieces of your color on the board at the end of the game.
xlife is an X implementation of John Horton Conway's Game of Life.
The computer calculates a combination of five characters (each between
A and J) and you have to try to find out the combination the computer
has calculated. Your questions to the computer are also combinations of
five characters (each between A and J).
You get sets of black and/or white blocks as answers to your questions.
If you get a black block as answer it means that there is one character
in your try at the correct position (but you don't know which one it
is).
If you get a white block as answer it means that there is a character in
your guess that also occurs in the solution, but at another position
(but you don't know which one it is and at which position it would be
correct).
You control a gnome, who can walk around a garden, along paths already
marked, or create new paths wherever you wish. You also have a ball,
which can be thrown in the direction you're facing, towards the gnome's
feet. Points are scored for collecting cherries, killing monsters and
collecting the prize left when all the monsters have come out of their den.

You are Pacman, and you are supposed to eat all the small
dots to get to the next level. You are also supposed to
keep away from the ghosts, if they take you, you lose one
life, unless you have eaten a large dot, then you can, for
a limited amount of time, chase and eat the ghosts. There
is also bonus available, for a limited amount of time. An
X gives just points, but a little pacman gives an extra
life.
The original Panex puzzle is from the Japanese Magic Company
from the 1980's. Mathematicians at Bell Laboratories estimated
the number of moves to swap 2 columns of order 10 to be
27,564 <= N <= 31,537. It came in two varieties: one with a
blue and a yellow pyramid of order 10 on silver tiles; in the
gold version pieces of each color look alike i.e. no pyramid
is drawn on them), this is a little harder.
The original Tower of Hanoi puzzle is the invention of
Edouard Lucas and was sold as a toy in France in 1883. The
legend of 64 disks in the great temple of Benares of the god
Brahma is also his invention.

Xchomp is a game closely patterned after Pac-Man(tm) that runs under the
X window system. I've tried to make the game as close as possible to the
original Pac-Man. However, I have not seen a Pac-Man arcade machine for
years, so all the elements of the game have been recalled from memory.
