Im always om the look out for foss games. Any recommendations? Gonna be on a bus trip for 5 hours. 🤣🤣
friday night funkin is surprisingly apache
Don’t know what you are into, or playing on but I’ve been enjoying endless sky recenty:
I usually turn to shattered pixel dungeon
Balatro
Oh cool didn’t realize it was OSS (not free obvs)
I don’t think it is. Sorry, I completely missed where you said FOSS.
Not OP lol
Looked it up, and it’s not truly OSS, but you can actually look at and modify the source code by executing the game as a zip instead.
That really surprises me. Id have thought it would be way more closed than that.

I time travel with unciv. This is how I once survived a 15 hour long haul flight.

Doom is always great. FOSS up to Doom 3, but you still need the full games for the assets. If you don’t have them there is still Freedoom. And The Dark Mod is a great free Thief like game on the Doom 3 engine.
The Dark Mod is certainly the best and most advanced OpenSource game I know (well, not full OpenSource, because the user created missions, currently 170, are with several CC licensed assets, released because of this as freeware)
Stronghold Defense mod is amazing. It’s basically a base defense game against hundreds of enemies parading towards you, with custom weapons and power ups.
If you like an RPG, Diablo style, there is also FLARE (Free/Libre Action Roleplaying Engine)
Anuto TD and Breakout 71 are good time killers on the phone. Open TTD if you are into sims and Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead if you want post apocolyptic turn based survival horror rougelike. There are also quite a few RPG fangames based on Lisa the Painful.
Lichess.org for online chess, or (most private of all) a physical travel board if you’re with a friend who wants to play. Lichess isn’t very private but definition though. Not sure why you asked in c/privacy? Anyway what happened to reading a book on a bus trip?
Oh try universal paperclips if you haven’t. 5 hours is about right for finishing it. That’s pretty private.
0AD. Similar to Age of Empires
Install Warzone 2100, start poking the game files, adjust various numbers and see what happens. Give your cannons massive range, make every unit super cheap to manufacture or whatever. Your imagination is the limit. Play the game however you want. The game itself is good, but hacking it is just so much more fun.
If you are fine with VNs (visual novels) as games, there is Katawa Shoujo. There is a “remastered” version of it in F-Droid for android: https://f-droid.org/packages/sh.fhs.ksre/
If you are going to use a laptop (linux natively supported): https://www.katawa-shoujo.online/download
maybe try out pico8
