IMHO it may be possible using the LOCALL APPS=Y setting, as it'll take
ThinClient CPU and Ram to run software.
The only problem you should encounter is about the game config as you
may need one different setting on each one but linux version may be able
to do that (ie: Q3a is using $HOME/.q3a directory).
Hope this helps.
