Stand alone Linux games?
 

i have a simple Pentium 2 333mhz w/ slackware 11.
i would like to find some simple games to play on it.
I enjoy old dos adventure games. Anything out there for me?

Checked it out already? :) Good you have Slack, it should not be a pain if you need to compile some from source..

What do you mean by "standalone games"?

Install dosbox, then do a Google search for dos games.

A few good dos game sites:
Classic DOS Games

Abandonia - Home of abandonware DOS games
http://www.abandonia.com/index2.php

Free games: Download over 400 DOS games.

don't forget:

by stand-alone, i just mean games that don't need some kind of emulator to run in Linux. Although, pointing me towards some dos emu stuff is nice :)

Never ran Slack, but there are tons of games out there for Linux.
