An often mentioned complaint about Linux is the lack of games. If you’re looking for the latest blockbuster from EA, sure, chances are, it won’t work with Linux out of the box. That doesn’t mean there aren’t great games out there for you to waste your time on though!

1. Sopwith/Airstrike.
In these games, you’re a little biplane, capable of going up, down, and flipping over. You can also shoot bullets forward at targets, and launch bombs down that fall in a parabolic trajectory. Sopwith has very “retro” graphics, but that doesn’t discredit it in my book. Airstrike has modern SDL based graphics, but only has a dogfight mode, not a ‘campaign’ mode, which I also really enjoy.

2. Pingus
Pingus is pretty much just a clone of lemmings, but I love it just the same. Great graphics, and a small community of level-creators makes this game pretty much a lot of fun, that can take you a while to get to the bottom of.
