    Hi,

    In 3.5 hours I shall emerge from an intensive study session, and it would be lovely to unwind with a MorphOS game.

    What MorphOS native freeware titles would you recommend? Preferably quick to pick up and not too mentally taxing after a busy day :)

    Had an enjoyable 20 minutes playing Fortis, thank you!

    (When I say playning, I mean careering around the screen, without much clue how to direct the guns...but it was good fun!)

    There's no need to direct the guns, just move/rotate with cursor keys and fire with Ctrl. The other way (move with cursors, direct fire with mouse) is a bit awkward (at least for me), as the steering system was made with touchable screens in mind.

    Probably not. Some dealers may have remainders, though.

    The AmigaKit shop system automatically puts "Stock Expected: T.B.A." whenever a product has sold out. This doesn't mean anything.

    That's better! It's a pretty slick game.

    OpenXCom. A great port of a brilliant game.

    Battle for Wesnoth. Ditto.

    Both strategy but not particularly mentally taxing.
