Free word games software for linux

Wolvix is a GNU/Linux LiveCD built from SLAX. Wolvix is a desktop oriented distribution made to fit the needs from regular to advanced desktop users.

Along with the applications youll get some of the best free Linux games. (No 3D gfx card required).

Games Edition features over 50 games in different categories, four emulators and quite a few desktop applications.

You wont find World of Warcraft or Half-Life 2 on the CD, but Ive tried to include some of the finest free Linux games and I think there should be a game or two for most people, Ive even added dopewars for your grandma.

None of the games require 3D drivers, so you should be able to play most games on any graphics card

Java Games project is a collection of simple games that are compiled into Java applets and meant to be played online in a Web browser.

Currently the collection contains four games: XO World (similar to tic-tac-toe, but with lines of 5 on a 10x10 board); 100 Mack (guess the random combination of 4 images out of a set of six); Memory (flip 2 plates at a time to find matching pairs); and Tetris.

Davids Perl Games project is a collection of ASCII graphics arcade style games written in Perl.

These games are recreations of simple ASCII graphics games originally written in BASIC.

They are ideal for use as Perl programming tutorials. Some of the first few games are PerlBlaster (defend your planet from invading aliens), PerlRacer (steer your car through the twisting passages), and PerlArena (eliminate the mutant hordes).

Word Inspector project is a GTK frontend to Dict dictionary program.

The dict program allows you to search through one or more dictionary-like reference books for a word, then displays its definition.

Word Inspector expands that by allowing you to enter words to look up more easily, easily look up words that appear in the definition for another word, and automatically look up a word in the X Windows selection.

Games::Cards is a Perl module for writing and playing card games.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Cards;
my $Rummy = new Games::Cards::Game;

# Create the correct deck for a game of Rummy.
my $Deck = new Games::Cards::Deck ($Rummy, "Deck");

# shuffle the deck and create the discard pile
$Deck->shuffle;
my $Discard = new Games::Cards::Queue "Discard Pile";

# Deal out the hands
foreach my $i (1 .. 3) {
my $hand = new Games::Cards::Hand "Player $i" ;
$Deck->give_cards($hand, 7);
$hand->sort_by_value;
push @Hands, $hand;
}

# print hands (e.g. "Player 1: AS 2C 3C 3H 10D QS KH")
foreach (@Hands) { print ($_->print("short"), "n") }

$Hands[1]->give_a_card ($Discard, "8D"); # discard 8 of diamonds

This module creates objects and methods to allow easier programming of card games in Perl. It allows you to do things like create decks of cards, have piles of cards, hands, and other sets of cards, turn cards face-up or face-down, and move cards from one set to another. Which is pretty much all you need for most card games.

Games::Goban is a board for playing go, renju, othello, etc.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Goban;
my $board = new Games::Goban (
size => 19,
game => "go",
white => "Seigen, Go",
black => "Minoru, Kitani",
referee => &Games::Goban::Rules::Go,
);

$board->move("pd"); $board->move("dd");
print $board->as_sgf;

This is a generic module for handling goban-based board games. Theoretically, it can be used to handle many of the other games which can use Smart Game Format (SGF) but I want to keep it reasonably restricted in order to keep it simple.
