Would you like to play a game without leaving the comfort of your terminal?
Of course you would.
You've come to the right place.
ssh hunt@sshgames.thegonz.net
password: kalte
Sneak around a maze and shoot people. Including me, if I'm around.
It's the classic BSD game hunt, but with colour and a sensible timing system and stuff.
ssh intricacy@sshgames.thegonz.net
password: intricacy
You pick ASCII locks with a pair of ASCII tools.
Then you design difficult-to-pick locks for others to fail to pick.
It's a hardcore puzzly game, in which figuring out the obfuscated interface is only the first of many challenges!
ssh lagrogue@sshgame.thegonz.net
password: lag
A simple roguelike, with an evil twist: you're controlling a robot which is some lightseconds distant from you, so your commands are processed a few turns after you give them.
For some inexplicable reason I thought this would be fun.
For some even less explicable reason, I do find it fun.
Also features a ludicrously complicated cave-digging algorithm.
ssh simulchess@sshgames.thegonz.net
password: simulchess
It's just chess. You know chess.
Oh, except that black and white move at the same time.
ssh ckhet@sshgames.thegonz.net
password: ckhet
It's a board game with lasers. Kind of fun.
ssh talk@sshgames.thegonz.net
password: tavla
A strange game where you converse in realtime with something that could almost pass for human.
For more information on the above games, including source, I'm afraid I'm going to point you to httpland:
