My favorites:

  • Mindustry
  • OpenTTD
  • Luanti (especially MT-Game, I actually dislike MineClonia)
  • Endless Sky
  • Shattered Pixel Dungeon
  • FreeCiv
  • YGO Omega & EDOPro

I keep wanting to get into Pioneers / FreeCol, but it just doesn't work for me. I know a lot of people love TuxKart and Rigs of Rods, but I can't jive with driving games. And I feel that there need to be honorable mentions to Nethack, Dwarf Fortress, and Liberal Crime Squad.

...all of them excellent. Dwarf Fortress, while being the bee's knees, is not open source.

Also try out Cataclysm: DDA. It's open source, and possibly approaches Dwarf Fortress in scope and fun.
