Re: games

["Jayson Smith" <ratguy@bellsouth.net>]

If you're talking about console games, there's a collection of games called
BSD Games.  In Gentoo, the package name is bsd-games I think.  Other
distributions probably have their own packages for it.  I think with Debian
they are automatically installed.  Some are less usable by a blind person
than others, but there are such classics as "Hunt the Wumpus" and "Advent",
as well as a very usable monopoly game called monop.
