My favorites:

  • Mindustry
  • OpenTTD
  • Luanti (especially MT-Game, I actually dislike MineClonia)
  • Endless Sky
  • Shattered Pixel Dungeon
  • FreeCiv
  • YGO Omega & EDOPro

I keep wanting to get into Pioneers / FreeCol, but it just doesn't work for me. I know a lot of people love TuxKart and Rigs of Rods, but I can't jive with driving games. And I feel that there need to be honorable mentions to Nethack, Dwarf Fortress, and Liberal Crime Squad.

Woah, thanks for the list of games! I basically knew only about Tux Kart.

You're welcome! There's a lot of great FOSS games - and I have to admit that having started from Windows, most of my knowledge originated from PortableApps.com. The games they list there are mostly FOSS, so it's a decent launchpad into the world of FOSS gaming.
