Check UFO2000: http://ufo2000.sourceforge.net

It is multiplayer tactical squad based strategy, remake of tactical part of X-COM: UFO Defense

got it to work. the gcc command line used -I/usr/X11/include. My system didn't have /usr/X11 only /usr/X11R6. I added the symlink. Is this a bug in the ebuild? Should I file it (kinda new to gentoo)?

Go for it and file it. It didnt work for you and might cause hell to someone unsuspecting

Enemy Territory and Americas Army are free. There are a few open source ones too like Cube but I haven't tried them myself.

I have discovered a lot of very good simple games, listed in no particular order:

Airstrike
Monster Masher
Frozen Bubble

They are very fun to play two players on a laptop in a train or somewhere else just to kill time. Also a lot of people tend to think they are fun, not just gamer-lamers

It's a good way to introduce people to Linux and Gentoo.

Almost forgot Lbreakout, it also definetly belongs to that list.

Ebuild for monster masher is now in bugs.gentoo.org if you want to try it out.
