Reminiscent of Columns for the Macintosh. XJewel is a falling-pieces game like Tetris, only jewels are removed from the board if three or more of the same jewel lie in a straight line. Interesting cascade-like effects can be achieved when the removal of jewels causes another set of jewels to line up, and so on. The original Columns game wasted far too much of my time; this is fairly comparable, lacking mainly digitized sounds.

An action game for X11 with many levels. The object is to destroy all the structures on each level by shooting the purple bulb in the center of the structure. Of course, various enemy craft are trying to get you at the same time. This game is strangely addictive.

Xoids is another asteroids game for X. It's similar in feel to the original wireframe xasteroids, but with color pixmaps, better animations, and details such as realistically sized asteroids and engines that can overheat. The two-player cooperative mode is interesting: the two ships are linked with an elastic cable, making maneuvering an interesting experience.

This game is similar to the old arcade game Qix. The point is to use your cursor to fill in regions of the screen while avoiding the red balls; block in three-quarters of each screen to move on to the next level, where there is one more red ball to watch out for.
