I have played Bookworm and Texttwist in Windows. Any such games (crossoword, word forming...) in linux?

I'm not sure but lots of open source and linux games can be found on www.happypenguin.org i was looking for some a while ago and i think scrabble is there im not sure what else.

The Scrabble game ewords (A windows game) runs fine using Wine it's shareware though.

Hi,

I found pyscrabble (http://pyscrabble.sourceforge.net/) - an online, multiplayer crossword game written in python. Although I am a linux-newbie, I finally got it running.

Here's how I did it:

- Downloaded and unpacked pyscrabble-1.5.1-src.zip
- Installed "python-twisted" (network-stuff) via Synaptic
- Installed "python-pygame" via Synaptic

Terminal (example):
cd /home/Username/Games/Pyscrabble-Folder/
python pyscrabble-main.py

No warranty :)

yours,
