World of Padman (WoP) is an open source first-person shooter computer game available in both English and German. Originally it was a modification for the Quake III Arena titled PadMod, created in the year 2004. After the source code for the Quake III Arena was released, the game became standalone. The idea is based on the Padman comic strip for the magazine PlayStation Games, created by the professional cartoon artist Andreas "ENTE" Endres, who is also the man who made many of the maps included with the game in 1998. The current version runs on an enhanced version of the ioquake3 engine, which is based on the Quake III Arena engine. Most of the maps in the game are lilliput style, and have a commercial-quality level of graphic complexity. Because it was originally a mod for Quake III Arena, most of the gameplay is similar. However, there is no Capture the Flag mode in World of Padman. World of Padman fully supports bots with a variety of skill levels in both online and offline play for all of the game types included. A single-player mode has not yet been implemented. Players can also record audio and video as they play. The game fully supports modifications, and custom maps can be created.

This is abacus for X Window System. Essentially, this is a proof by induction that a computer is more powerful than an abacus, since a computer program can contain an abacus. (But then again, you can simulate a computer within a computer, so what does that show). Actually, with a real abacus, one can move more than one row at a time with 10 fingers. But on the other hand, a real abacus does not have the current sum displayed as an integer.

This is XBattle by Greg Lesher, based on the original by Steve Lehar released in 1991, and including certain enhancements, modifications, and bug fixes suggested by a number of contributors from all over the world. XBattle is a concurrent multi-player game which combines elements of strategy with arcade-like action to capture a wide range of military scenarios. The game is based on X Windows, which you must have installed to run xbattle. Opponents play from separate displays, with commands being executed concurrently -- the players do not take "turns", but rather they all issue their commands simultaneously. There can be any number of players, with each player assigned to a specific team, indicated by marker colors. The game board is a matrix of cells (square, hexes, etc.) that can be occupied by colored troops, with the goal of the game being to eliminate the enemy from the board by attacking cells occupied by enemy troops. A wide variety of command line options (and previously configured game files) provide an abundance of different scenarios and gaming environments. If you have never used xbattle before, read the introduction on the xbattle Web site. To get the feel of the game, you can run the "tutorial1" and "tutorial2" scripts supplied with the game. These start a series of small example games that you can play around with to learn the various options available with the game.

From The README: Xblackjack is a MOTIF/OLIT based tool constructed to get you ready for the casino. It was inspired by a book called "Beat the Dealer" by Edward O. Thorp, Ph.D. of UCLA. A number of important statistics are maintained for display, and used by the program to implement Thorp's "Complete Point System" (high-low system). Beginners can learn a basic strategy which doesn't require counting. The best strategy employs a simple card counting technique which can be used to distinguish favorable situations. Avid players can learn to compute Thorp's high-low index, which takes the number of unseen cards into account. The index is used by the program to suggest a bet, indicate when you should buy insurance, and whether you should stand or hit, etc. You can test the strategy using a slider to control "autoplay mode". Pressing the message button below the playing area provides hints; the current count, index and strategy table are revealed.

XBlast is a multi-player arcade game for X11. The game can be played with at least two players and up to six players. It was inspired by the video/computer game Bomberman(Dynablaster), which was to my knowledge first programmed for NEC's PC Engine/Turbo Grafx. Other (com- mercial) versions of the original game exist for IBM-PC, Atari ST, Amiga, NES, GameBoy and Super NES.

XBlood fills the root window with blood. Red, blue or green bloody window is very bad taste!
