Howdy, I never had much luck with GMA Games stuff either. However about 95% of audio games do work in wine. HTH Storm On Sun, Aug 30, 2015 at 08:58:57AM -0400, Thomas Ward wrote:
Hi Vojta, There are quite a number of accessible games you can play under Linux if you know where to look, and aren't looking for a specific type of game. For example, a lot of interactive fiction games, IF for short, can be played using Speakup with a console interpreter like frotz, scare, etc. There are literally hundreds perhaps thousands of interactive fiction type games that are fairly accessible and might be a good place to start. There is the RS Games client which is also accessible. If you download the Linux client and sign up for a RS Games account you can play a number of card and puzzle games online. There are muds that can be played with the stock telnet client. I have played Alter Aeon and similar muds from the Linux console using Speakup and the standard telnet client so that is another option you might want to consider. As for playing accessible Windows games under Wine it can be done, but is often times a pain in the neck. For one thing I have gotten some games to work in Wine but only to find they crash often as not. Shades of Doom is a primary example. I can get through most of area 1, press enter to open a door or something, and the game crashes on me. Same problem with Tank Commander. So while it is feasible to play games using Wine it isn't always reliable. Cheers! On 8/30/15, Vojtěch Šmiro <vsmiro seznam cz> wrote:Hello. Are there any computer games for us, some accessible games in Linux? I know SoundRTS for Linux but I don`t know hoéw to launch it under Linux. What about Winetricks and installing in it?
