I want to host some LAN parties this winter, and am looking for some Free Software Games that would be a fun time. We already play some Counterstrike and StarCraft 2, but I want to expand into some actual Free games. Windows compatibility is a must, MacOS compatibility is desirable!
The two on my radar are:
- Hedgewars, which seems like a strong candidate. We played a ton of Worms 2 in the 90s
- 0 A.D., since we’re already fans of RTS games.
But I know there must be some wacky ones out there which would be suitable for 30 minutes of pick up play.
all of them![emoji pirate-jammin pirate-jammin](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/55c52773-bf1d-4116-9c94-8a912196752f.gif)
we always had fun with WC3 custom maps, although that takes a bit of setup and idk about mac compatibility
if you’ve got controllers there’s always MAME and a million other emulators for some good old arcade/console multiplayer, that Simpson’s beat-em-up and Soul Calibur have always been a hit
the first 2 or 3 Quakes are open source now
