Abstract
Playing games in Ubuntu might be seen by some people as an awkward idea, and many more may think that you will be lucky if you find at most a Space Invaders-like game. It is not widely recognized as a mainstream gaming platform like PlayStation, Xbox or Wii, and it’s not as popular as Windows. But Ubuntu does, you might say, under-promise and over-deliver. You’ll be surprised by the sheer amount of possibilities that the casual gamer has at hand.
