@ajroach42 um... does unrealworld.fi/ count?

It's been in development since 1992, and, well, um... it's a roguelike, and it's very Finnish (: So "fun to play" may be one of those things like "dysentry" and Oregon trail (:

It is not, however, open source. But I think, if you're not familiar with it, that it may fit what you were thinking of...

@mjd My only real requirement is an open content license.

A closed source game is okay if the binaries can explicitly be freely redistributed, but I'd prefer something that allows modification.

@ajroach42

Such as modding, or?

I mean, I'd just write the guys and ask them. Honestly, I think this is the sort of thing you're actually looking for - something someone's spent a lot of time working on (it is their job - this odd little game about living in Finland around the ice age, or after...)

@mjd I am explicitly looking for open content stuff at the moment, to talk about open content, as part of a #diymedia thing.

This game looks neat, but it probably isn't useful for this particular project.

@ajroach42 ah, right, this is a project thing where you need examples from that area.
Hmm...

tic80 ? (:

No, that hasn't been in development for that long.

There are loads of roguelikes and items people have already mentioned, I'm trying to think outside of those.
