I decided to write down a list of complete (no alpha/beta), playable (no proprietary dependencies), FOSS videogames.

I added all the games I could find online + all of the games that came to my memory.

Feel free to have a look to see if there's something you didn't know. And please suggest anything I missed, but please do not suggest pre-release or unfinished games.

Thank you!

EDIT: thank you very much everyone for the comments and for sharing additional awesome lists of FOSS material. Hopefully one day I will have the time to sift through all these games and pick all the non-pre-release ones which don't have any proprietary dependencies.

In the meantime, here's a copy of the links:

Another RTS suggestion, OpenRA: https://www.openra.net/

Hi! Although OpenRA's source code is free, it depends on proprietary assets, so unfortunately it doesn't qualify for this list. Still, thanks for the suggestion, CnC and RA were both amazing games!

I checked the website and you're right, the game engine is free but the mods require files from the original games.
