Foobillard worked well, too. Good is a very subjective term. I've always liked things like Rogue, Moria, Nethack, Angband, and Omega, but YMMV. If you want a 3D realtime game, consider games/bzflag, aka www.bzflag.org. [ Their site may be a little flakey right now, I just saw a: Warning: mysql_connect(): Too many connections in /home/groups/b/bz/bzflag/htdocs/document.php on line 5 ...which seems to be a SourceForge issue.] -- -Chuck
