Hi Trenton,
Yes, there are some games in Linux you cam play, but your selection is 
obviously much smaller than
Windows gaming right now. Obviously, you can play web based games like 
Sryth under firefox, and there are some shell based mud clients that 
work well with Orca. There are some text based games like Hangman you 
can download and install that work ok with Orca as well.
Quite a while back I wrote some textbased games of my own to use under 
Linux like Black Jack, Poker, but I no longer know where the source code 
is for those games at the moment. Though, if I get in the moodd to 
continue my Linux games I'll see if I can find the source or simply 
rewrite those games and post them for download.
