G2F3 (Generic Game Framework in eiFFel) aims to
simplify the development of two player zero sum
strategy games by separating game specific code
from reusable generic code. So far, abstract board
games are best supported. This software is written
using GNU SmartEiffel. The package comes with six
example games.

SBAlphaBeta is a Foundation framework for creating AIs for many 2-player games. It encapsulates the Alpha-beta algorithm. No prior experience with Artificial Intelligence is necessary in order to use this framework.

Hotelbuster is a tile-based, turn-based
strategy game based on MB's board game,
Hotel. It adds some extensions and new
features and a client-server architecture.

JTEG contains a Java client/server for the TEG game. TEG is a pseudo-clone of the board game "Risk", a multi-player networked turn-based strategy game.

Slibo aims to be a comfortable replacement for the xboard chess interface, written for OpenGL and KDE. It uses the xboard protocol and can be used with common chess engines like crafty or gnuchess, but it provides its own chess engine too. Though its designed to be easy to use for the new chess player, it supports playing multiple games the same time, or anaylzing PGN files with multiple engines.

Hyades is a free space strategy game. There are no battle
boards or special battle engines; all battles take place in
the same 3D space that ships travel through from star to
star. It features realistic game mechanics and multiplayer
oriented play.

Biloba is a turn-based game for 2 to 4 players.
Each player moves pawns on a hexagonal board and
attempts to eliminate opponents' pawns. Biloba
includes an AI opponent and supports local or
network play.

Java XianQi lets you play Chinese chess with
yourself (not the computer) or an online opponent.

ChessY! is a Java application that allows you to visually review the game histories that you can email to yourself at the end of a Yahoo! online chess game.

GNMM is an implementation of the game "Nine Men's Morris" for the GNOME desktop. It supports playing against the computer with adjustable strength.

Mindless Automaton lets you play collectable/trading card games (Magic: the Gathering and possibly others) against other people over a network. The game is simply a virtual tabletop; it does not play against you or enforce the rules.

Ecere Chess is a very simple, but fun 3D chess game
with AI and network support. It will run on any platform supported by the Ecere SDK (currently Windows and Linux). It is a good opponent with whom to practice your chess skills, as although it is not very smart, it will rapidly take advantage of your mistakes since it sees all possibilities two moves ahead.

Tow Bowl Tactics is a game based on Games
Workshop's Blood Bowl. It is an epic conflict
between two teams of heavily-armed and
quite insane warriors. Players pass, throw, or
run with the ball, attempting to get it to the
End Zone at the end of the field to score a
touchdown. Games are full of violence and
carnage and could be compared to a
combination of Warhammer, American football,
and rugby.
