Ubuntu Games

Windows Games

Windows games can run on Ubuntu, but they need either an emulator or a compatibility layer.

Emulators

  • ["DOSBox"] - for old DOS games

Wine and Cedega

Wine and Cedega (a fork of Wine) are compatibility layers.

  • ["Wine"] - completely free and works for some games
  • ["Cedega"] - costs money, but works for more games

Specific Windows games

Helping with Games on Ubuntu

There are various ways to help the Ubuntu community make Ubuntu a better gaming platform:

  • ["MOTU/Teams/Games"] - The Masters of the Universe games team, who maintain the games in Ubuntu
  • ["MOTU/Teams/Games/NEW"] - for listing any games you would like to see in Ubuntu
  • UniverseGamesWithoutDesktopFile - making certain all games in Ubuntu show up in the menu
