Linux REAL board / card game


Hi!

Some time ago I read news about Linux themed card or board game (don't remember exactly now). Does anyone here remembers its name? Note that I am talking about real game (that you can physically touch), not a computer game!

Thanks!

No replies, so I'm going to just give it my best guess (which I'm sure is way off).

It's not Netrunner, is it?

When OP first posted, I searched for some kind of Linux-related board or care game and found nothing.

I read a few descriptions of netrunner after seeing your post and there doesn't seem to be anything in those descriptions that seems specifically Linux related, though it is a card game about hacking. Netrunner seems to be a card game about a hacker vs. the megacorp in the tradition of D&D.

(Full Disclosure: I've never played D&D, but Second Son, when he was about 12, organized a long-running D&D game at a local mystery and science fiction bookshop, which shop, sadly, is now defunct. It was a long time ago.)
