■ 🕑 2. Do Nethack or DC:SS count? I love both of those games, even if they're... "lacking"... in modern sensibilities.
Probably the FOSS games I play the most are Tetris in emacs and Gikopoi: and someone's working on making a Gikopoi client for emacs, written in emacs lisp, which is uhhh pretty unexpected??????
I kind of want to write a server for traditional games like cribbage in C and then make a client in emacs-lisp but I worry I'd never be able to find friends to play those trad games with ;_; Just a websearch for "backgammon emacs" is depressing enough as-is, (zero results), why bother writing several hundreds or thousands of lines of code to sit waiting in a lobby to play a game with no one.... ;_;
It's not FLOSS by any means, but one of my favorite "free" online games is Power Bomberman: http://www.bombermanboard.com/viewtopic.php?t=1925&start=760
Definitely will check out cataclysm:dda later, thanks for the rec OP
