There was a Hearts game for GNOME which is unmaintained now. The game ends as soon as one player reaches 100 points. All of the hearts are worth 1 point and the queen of spades is worth 13 points, other cards don’t add up points. The standard ruleset is what most people will be familiar with. How many points a card is and when the game ends depends on the ruleset. As soon as one player reaches a set number of points the game is over and the player with the lowest score is declared the winner. The objective is to gain as few point cards as possible, with the point cards usually being all the hearts and the queen of spades. Hearts is a trick-taking card game played by four players using a full 52 cards deck (without jokers). As usual, I focus on openSUSE and Linux Kamarada, but if you use another Linux distribution, you may easily find out how to install those games on it. Linux users can enjoy the versions provided by GNOME and KDE, the two major desktop environments in terms of number of users and integrated apps.Īctually, all of the games listed here should work well on all desktop environments, but KDE games may work better on Qt-based DEs (such as KDE itself, Deepin and LXQt), while GNOME games may work better on GTK-based DEs (almost all of the others, including GNOME itself, Unity, Xfce, Cinnamon, MATE, Pantheon, LXDE and Budgie).Īlso, all of the following games are free and open source and, except by the last one, are all included in Linux Kamarada. Some of these classic games became popular among desktop users because they have been included in the Windows operating system. I chose 20 games to talk about here and I’m going to start by 10 that are classic ones. I myself didn’t know there were that many options available, and more are being released every day, as the community of Linux users and developers grows. Who said Linux is not an operating system for games? Christmas break was coming, so I decided to search games for Linux and I found the results quite impressive.
