commercially available on CD. It seems to run only under x86.

You will need the CD, this port only helps you install and deinstall the game and get it to run under FreeBSD.

The principal differences between KnightCap and other chess programs are:

• KnightCap has an optional fully rendered 3D interface, giving a feel much more like an "over the board" game.
• KnightCap was developed to run on a parallel distributed memory machine, although it also runs on normal Unix boxes.
• KnightCap does not have an opening book---instead it keeps a file (brain.dat) of losing moves and inserts them in the hash table at the start of each search. At present it has about 1500 entries, and this makes it a pretty competitive opening player.
• KnightCap learns the parameters of its evaluation function as it plays. The most dramatic example of how this helps is an experiment we conducted on FICS in which KnightCap learnt from a 1650 player to a 2100 player in just 300 games. See http://cs.anu.edu.au/people/Lex.Weaver/pub_sem/publications knightcap.pdf for more info on its learning algorithm.

The latest version includes clones of freecell, golf, mastermind, merlin, minesweeper, pegged, solitaire, taipei (with editor!), and thornq (by Martin Thornquist).

design objective was to provide source code that could be easily compiled and executed on a wide variety of platforms. To that end, acm is written entirely in C, exploiting the programming features of Unix, X11, and the BSD socket interface.

Players engage in air to air combat against one another using heat seeking missiles and cannons.

ACM is implemented as two programs. The first, named "acm", is a small program that, when invoked, starts a flight session on a given workstation. The second component, named "acms", is a server process that manages the multiplayer environment. It also manages the flight simulation and display management that is required. Most players will prefer to run the acms process on a back-end server system on their local area network. Players at client workstations can then invoke the acm program to begin play.

As a loyal servant of the elven Lady Silverhair, you arrive at the remote trading post of Waste's Edge, where she is engaged in negotiations with the dwarish merchant Bjarn Fingolson.

The project's goals are the creation of an engine (currently going by the codename adonthell), a set of tools and an actual, playable game driven by that engine and built with those tools.

platform independent log format (meta log format), and generates meaningful (and very pretty!) stats and ranking pages in HTML form. Overall features:

• Split into two executables to make the code more modular (independent of specific games/mod). This also makes updates quicker and less prone to new bugs.
• Modules are command line driven, giving you the maximum control of the the executables, without having to deal with klutzy platform dependent interfaces. This makes it possible to control the modules via batch files or scripts. Ideal for automating calls.
• HTML output is eatable by any browser with frames. Since plain HTML code is generated, any user should be able to view the output.
• Provides an UnrealScript module (aeonsdmmod.u) that will generate extra log info, since Unreal does not provide any frag obituaries by default.

You are in a two-dimensional maze in which you are attacked by robots that shoot at you and that you must shoot down. You must pick up a gun somewhere in the maze in order to have a few bullets to shoot. Avoid the spiders and the bats, which can paralyze you long enough for a robot to come and shoot you. The bunker in the center is your only protection.

Aleph One port:

• Marathon 2: Durandal
• Marathon Infinity

• Excalibur: Morgana's Revenge
• Eternal
• Marathon Evil
• Marathon Red
• Rubicon X
• Tempus Irae

Marathon is a three-part, first-person shooter series that was published by Bungie Software. The complete Marathon trilogy consists of "Marathon", "Marathon 2: Durandal", and "Marathon Infinity". The hallmark of the series is the detailed story-line that unfolds throughout the game.

After Bungie released the source code to the Mac OS version of Marathon, the Aleph One project was created to enhance the software and port it to other operating systems. As AlephOne has matured, so have the user-contributed scenarios, some which far surpass the original Marathon game scenarios themselves.

Aleph One is OpenGL-accelerated, but performs well without OpenGL if you do not have a graphics card with the appropriate functionality (you need to use the -g/--nogl option).

released by id Software. Begun by COR Entertainment in 2004, the game combines a 1950s-era sci-fi atmosphere with gameplay similar to the Quake, Doom, and Unreal Tournament series. Alien Arena focuses mainly on online multiplayer action, although it does contain single player campaigns against bots.

Alien Arena has been released for Microsoft Windows, Linux and FreeBSD. Alien Arena has been free-to-play since its inception, and there are currently no plans to change it to pay-to-play.

Note: this port only contains the data needed to run Alien Arena, shared by the Linux and native ports of the game engine. To play Alien Arena you have to install one of "games/alienarena" or "games/linux-alienarena".

Each player begins with a certain number of pieces (or armies) that he has to move and make attack. One of his pieces represents him-self (or the chief, or the king, or anything you want). If this piece die, the player is eliminated. The last player staying alive wins. Messages can be sent to the other players , so that alliances can be implemented. A special timer assures that the game remains dynamic.

There can be up to 6 planes, at most two human-controlled. All others will be computer-controlled. Network support is in to do list.

You must shoot at another's planes, destroy others' base and try to keep alive. You may return to your base to refill your ammo. The scenery is randomly generated.

Currently the game has no menus. You run it, play it, and it exits at end. To fix this is also in to do list.

Other options include 3rd person (which was in the original game, just disabled). The other change that I enjoy is the lack of a busy loop - now cpu usage isn't 100% - on any recent system it should be less than 25%.

Bob also has to contend with environmental hazards, alien invaders and assimilated Blobs.

Notes

• Good idea to restrict file names to 20 chars.

• The editor tries to fill the entire screen - so if you write a level on a big screen, you will not be able to play it on a small one. And remember to save the game you are editing before exiting.

• Probably contains bugs - but if I knew what they were they would not be there ...

A big THANK YOU goes to Joey Hess (jeh22@conell.edu) who contributed the pyramid level, wrote the man pages for the game and pointed out a couple of minor bugs.

by Nintendo's Tetris Attack (or "Panel de Pon") for the Super Nintendo. It might seem like any other match-3 style game but it is generally much faster. The game requires fast decisions compared to other puzzle games. While you can setup the perfect chain it is much more likely that you will construct chains while blocks are still dropping around you.

In addition to traditional game types like endless, time trial and stage clear the game does also feature a VS-mode. The VS mode is a dual like you rarely see in a puzzle game.

This 52-card solitaire starts with the entire deck shuffled and dealt out in four rows. The aces are then moved to the left end of the layout, making 4 initial free spaces. You may move to a space only the card that matches the left neighbor in suit, and is one greater in rank. Kings are high, so no cards may be placed to their right (they create dead spaces).

When no moves can be made, cards still out of sequence are reshuffled and dealt face up after the ends of the partial sequences, leaving a card space after each sequence, so that each row looks like a partial sequence followed by a space, followed by enough cards to make a row of 14. A moment's reflection will show that this game cannot take more than 13 deals. A good score is 1-3 deals, 4-7 is average, 8 or more is poor.

intelligence?

A recent study published in PNAS, an important scientific journal, shows that a particular memory task called Dual N-Back actually improves working memory (short term memory) and fluid intelligence. This finding is important because fluid intelligence was previously thought to be unchangeable. The game involves remembering a sequence of spoken letters and a sequence of positions of a square at the same time.

In addition to its ability to closely replicate the conditions of the original study by Jaeggi et al. (2008), Brain Workshop includes optional extended game modes such as Triple N-Back and Arithmetic N-Back. It also includes features such as statistics tracking, graphs and easy configurability.

What are Nodes?

Doom uses a rendering algorithm based on a binary space partition, otherwise known as a BSP tree. This is stored in a data lump called NODES in the WAD file. So tools to build the BSP tree are known as node builders.

Before you can play a level that you have created, you must use a node builder to create the data that Doom will use to render the level. BSP is one of several node builders that can do this.

Scavenge the remnants of a dead civilization for for food, equipment, or, if you're lucky, a vehicle with a full tank of gas to get you the hell out of Dodge. Fight to defeat or escape from a wide variety of powerful monstrosities, from zombies to giant insects to killer robots and things far stranger and deadlier, and against the others like yourself, that want what you have...

This version is adapted to build, install and run on FreeBSD.

Craft was created by Michael Fogleman.

being added regularly. It can play, analyze, and even annotate games for you. Crafty can utilize tablebases; these are available for FreeBSD in the related ports.

The files bitmaps.tgz and sound.tgz are available in your doc directory, usually /usr/local/share/doc/crafty. The bitmaps are for html annotations performed by crafty - they should be unpacked into the directory you normally analyze games into, and all should be fine...

The sounds are for move announcements. Unpack the archive somewhere, and have a look at the 'speak' script to customize for your use, if desired.

22.1 -> New "skill" command that can be used to "dumb down" crafty. "skill <n>" where n is a number between 1 and 100. 100 is max (default) skill. Skill 70 will drop the playing Elo by about 200 points. Skill 50 will drop it about 400 points. The curve is not linear, and the closer you get to 1, the lower the rating.

can be used to acquire much insight into this complex process. The user can learn about the relation between speed, reaction-time and stopping distance. Also, many physical properties can be studied.

automatically generates programs for the game Corewars by using Charles Darwin's theories on natural selection. When you start CRE, here's what happens:

1. A population of warriors is created by randomly selecting instructions. 2. Each warrior's fitness is tested by battling with other warriors in the population. 3. The fittest warriors reproduce and replace less fit warriors. 4. The previous two steps are repeated indefinitely.

adventure game. Since its initial release, Crossfire has grown to encompass over 150 monsters, about 3000 maps to explore, an elaborate magic system, 13 races, 15 character classes, a system of skills, and many artifacts and treasures. Crossfire is based in a medieval fantasy world and is similar to other games of this genre.

you can learn how to fly model aircraft, test new aircraft designs, and improve your skills by practicing on your computer.

It rules! The flight model is very realistic. The flight model parameters are calculated based on a 3D representation of the aircraft. Stalls are properly modelled as well. Model control is possible with your own rc transmitter, or any input device such as joystick, mouse, keyboard.

represent various strategy of tabletennis on computer game.

It also has some small special features. (e.g. a highscore-list)

• Single- and multi-player gameplay
• In-engine editing of geometry in full 3D (you fly around the map, point and drag stuff to select or modify it), which can even be done with multiple people at once
• Simplistic, but effective fine grain vertex lighting that looks like lightmapping and can do dynamic lights and shadows
• No need for any kind of map precompilation, even lighting is done on fly
• Very simplistic quad-tree world structure that can do slopes (height-fields with caps) and slants, water
• Decent collision detection and physics
• Client/server networking that goes a long way in giving a lag-free game experience
• Doom/Quake-style singleplayer and multiplayer game with some uncompromising brutal old-school gameplay

simulation, and the primary form of conflict is over land and plant resources---there is no shooting, but there are plenty of angry looks. It is also an evolution simulation. Within the world of Cultivation, you can explore a virtually infinite spectrum of different plant and gardener varieties.

All of the graphics, sounds, melodies,and other content in Cultivation are 100% procedurally generated at playtime. In other words, there are no hand-painted texture maps---instead, each object has a uniquely "grown" appearance. Every time you play, Cultivation generates fresh visuals, music, and behaviors.

Do not be fooled by inferior immitations (like the figlet font which doesn't connect letters right). This is the one and only original cursive program.

German submarine simulation. It is currently available for FreeBSD, Linux/i386 and Windows, but since it uses SDL/OpenGL it should be portable to other operating systems or platforms.

and off experimenting, it got somewhat of an overhaul when the Quake engine source code was released, and I began developing a custom OpenGL-only engine for it and other mods, which supports Windows WGL and Linux GLX, and has greatly improved graphics and image quality.

It cannot easily be described, as it is simply an improved Quake, not a total conversion (yet, anyway).

The realism of shell casings falling to the floor, much improved bullet impacts, 32bit color alpha blended explosions, blood flying everywhere and sticking to the walls...

Behind the scenes the code has changed a great deal, I was not content with the original QuakeC code, and I have greatly changed the engine while maintaining compatibility with normal Quake modifications.

Your mission is to defend little penguinoids from being captured and mutated.

HISTORY

Digger was originally created by Windmill software in 1983 and released as a copy-protected, bootable 5.25" floppy disk for the IBM PC/XT. As it requires a genuine CGA card, it didn't work on modern PCs. In 1998 a new version was created by Andrew Jenner which runs on all PCs with CGA or better and, whilst retaining all the atmosphere and playability of the original, has many new features.

In 2000 it was ported to several Unix-like architectures by Maxim Sobolev. Currently it supports FreeBSD, using either VGL or SDL library, and Linux using SDL library.

You have to cut a Polygon in a specific number of equal parts using a specific number of lines.

Levels consists of a list of Polygons, a number of parts and a number of slices. Maximum width allowed for a level is 600, Maximum height is 400. There is no level editor at the moment, so it's text-editor style.

It is written entirely in Java, and is designed to run as a stand-alone application rather than an applet in a web browser. It has high-resolution graphics that simulate a 3D environment. Most of the graphics are rendered in the free ray-tracer Pov-Ray. Item graphics and character portraits are done by hand with a paint program, though many are simply taken from the original and its sequels and touched-up.

Gameplay is very similar to the original, with real-time action, 90-degree turns, and step-by-step movement. One major change from the original is that monsters are not "stuck" in groups: they are completely free to wander, sometimes occupying a square with other monsters and sometimes not.

aims to be an 'old school' arcade game with low resolution graphics, top-down scroll action, energy based gameplay and different weapons with several levels of power.
