Debian Jr. Tekstipelit

Näiden pelien paras puoli on niiden yksinkertaisuus. Ne toimivat millä tahansa laitteistolla, ja jotkut niistä ovat niin yksinkertaisia hallita, että hyvinkin nuoret lapset nauttivat niistä (esim. snake).

You think of an animal, and this package tries to guess it... when it's wrong, you teach it about your animal.

To be more flexible and help educational aspect this game does not contain an initial database. This also allows it to be used for non animals like guessing of tools or locations.

Cowsay (or cowthink) will turn text into happy ASCII cows, with speech (or thought) balloons. If you don't like cows, ASCII art is available to replace it with some other creatures (Tux, the BSD daemon, dragons, and a plethora of animals, from a turkey to an elephant in a snake).

Moon-buggy on yksinkertainen merkkipohjaisella grafiikalla toteutettu peli, jossa ajat jonkinlaista autoa kuun pinnalla. Valitettavasti eteesi tulee vaarallisia kraatereita. Onneksi autosi pystyy hyppäämään niiden yli!
