What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A curated awesome-list of Unix ASCII/terminal games, maintained as a YAML database and rendered as an HTML catalog with screencasts and playable server links. It catalogs roguelikes, puzzles, and action games playable in a terminal via telnet or ssh.

Use cases

  • find ascii games to play in the terminal
  • discover roguelike games for unix
  • list terminal games playable over ssh
  • find open-source console games
  • browse retro ascii-art games with screencasts

When to choose

  • you want a curated, categorized index of terminal/ASCII games
  • you want screencasts or playable ssh/telnet servers to try games instantly
  • you want to contribute game entries via a simple YAML format

When to avoid

  • you want a game engine or library to build games
  • you need graphical or modern 3D games
  • you need a downloadable game itself rather than a catalog of links
