esports-for-engineers VS BrogueCE

There's a python script that makes the organization more clear. Once you've installed the games package, run "./launcher.py" at the ubuntu command line to see a text menu "Top Level Menu" which launches the games.

This menu is shown on page 2 of the brochure here: https://github.com/sim-museum/esports-for-engineers/blob/mas...

According to the class syllabus, games include open source deep learning chess and go, as well as old open source sims such as Speed Dreams, Rowan's Mig Alley and Battle of Britain, and Free Falcon. Some free demo programs are included too. The game package, which has sha256sum

racing sims and MS flight simulator are non-violent, but lack story. Some classic games in these categories have detailed historical settings and a lot of complexity, allowing you to create your own adventure in an open world. The adventure is different every time you play. Some classic sims of this type are here: https://github.com/sim-museum/esports-for-engineers

Nobody's mentioning old commercial games that were later released by their publishers as open source. One example is the classic combat flight sim "Rowan's Battle of Britain", initially released in the year 2000. You can find it packaged to run under linux/wine, along with other free games, here:

(this is free, and does not use steam)

For a long time, most traditional roguelikes were free (although there seem to be more on steam lately). I think Brogue is a good place to start; it isn't too complicated, it has some nice quality of life stuff, cooperates with a mouse, and its pretty for its genre.

I only play community edition, and my ascensions have been lightning, conjuration, teleport and some reaping combinations. My mastery was teleport with invis/reaping support. Multiplicity weapons are good (spear, rapier) but i tend to get ambitious and play hard for a mastery and screw it up.

Your best option is Brogue (community edition), in my opinion.

Brogue

Brogue is another good option if you're down with rogue-likes, can basically run on anything (& has an Android version).

Adding Brogue [1] to the list. Neat and very well balanced.
