Rules for this list

Only complete games, which have at least open source code (media can be semi- or non-free.) In addition, the games on this list must be free to download (also known as "free as in beer".) Please discuss on the Talk page before removing games from the list and before adding games which are likely to be seen as incomplete.

Complete games must not have features missing, which are required to complete a game session, campaigns or multi-player matches. Single-player mode must have a start, an end and provide a reasonable amount of levels/gameplay. Multi-player mode must provide a reasonable amount of levels and game modes.

Use Wikipedia's Video game genres to categorize games.

If you don't know an aspect of the game, research it. No "unknown" fields please!

These 'definitions' will hopefully be improved with the help of the power of discussion.
