KDE already includes some basic but still interesting games too, that are part of its 'KDE Educational Project' -- Kalzium (periodic table of elements), KGeography (geography tutor), Ktouch (typing tutor), KStars (not quite as extensive as Stellarium), and several others.
I certainly wouldn't call Hedgewars non-violent. Though it is a fun game indeed.
Yeah I was debating it with myself when writing, but at some point one has to draw the line, right? I think the usual objections are more about graphics than the implied content. For example, millions die is free-civ wars, pinguins fall to their deaths in supertux2, and nsnakes is as bad as the Whacking day, but that's not the point. So I think hedgewars may just qualify as an entry where the cartoony approach makes everything OK.

If you go the MAME/MESS/UME route check out games for SNES/Megadrive era stuff. Many of those games are kid friendly. Emulation might not be ideal, but it opens of huge listing up.
