Chapter 19. Would You Like to Play a Game? (Very Serious Fun)

There's plenty to smile about when it comes to taking a little down time with your Ubuntu Linux system. A default GNOME installation comes with a number of games, enough to keep you busy for some time. When you do finally decide that you need additional entertainment, there are literally hundreds of games waiting for you to download.

Expand your mind with one of the many puzzles. Do a little target practice in the arcade. Race down a dizzying mountain slope. Play golf. Sink someone's battleship. Board a space fighter and take on somebody halfway around the world. Play solitaire, backgammon, or poker.

There are tons of games available, and I'm just talking about the ones on your distribution disks. Head off to the Internet and you'll find yourself set for weeks, possibly months.

Sit back, relax, and get ready to enjoy a little fun, Ubuntu Linux style.
