 Well, I've installed 2 free RPGs, but unfortunately cannot run. The games
 die :(

 I guess I'll have to browse from letter 'C' onward later. Using the mcc 
 KDE/GNOME doesnt show the games.

Try just under the section Games?  There's tonne of them in Contrib...  Then 
there's also kdegames, with the killer app, solitaire :-)

  I love airstrike. Their still working on it but the version released at

  on 'bip' (bi-plane).

 Try enigma if you like puzzles.and of course sirtet if you like
 tetris.

Thank you all for all the suggestions. I have fun playing all these new games. 
I especially like alienbuster, however the game ends after killing two 
bosses :( So short. Also airstrike, a bit difficult, but quite fun.
I still have several games to try, alienpool, amphetamine, alephone (notice 
the alphabet 'a'?) Hehe..  So many games to dig out and try.

 Thanks :)

RPG - Neverwinter Nights

1st person shooters - Ut2004, Quake 3, Rune, Doom3

Military - Medal of Honor: Allied Assault

If you want to run Transgamings' Cedega software, you can run the likes of:

Diablo2-Lord of Destruction, Starcraft-Brood Wars, Knights of the Old Republic 
1 and 2 (Sith Lords), Dungeon Siege, Elder Scrolls-Morrowind, Star Wars Jedi 
Knight and Jedi Academy, Warcraft 3: Frozen Throne and even World of 
Warcraft.

Of course these are commercial, and there are plenty of free games to play 
as others have mentioned. Chromium, Critical Mass, and Armagetron spring to 
mind right away.

Lots of options, and many more games than I've mentioned so get out there and 
get gaming! :-)

You don't have to browse by name; you can rearrange it by category.  That 
way you can see all the games in one or two piles.  :)  I think they're 
under Graphical Desktop  [then KDE, GNOME or OTHER]  Games

I like LBreakout, KBounce, Kolorlines, Gnotski   Mahjong.  KGoldrunner is 
like Super Mario Brothers   GTali is like Yahtzee.  I think some of these 
are in the KDE games package and or the Gnome games package.

have fun
