Linux Tycoon: Linux Distro Building Simulation and Management Game

Downloads: [Linux] [Windows] [MacOS X] [DOS]

Price: $5.

Linux Tycoon is the premier Linux Distro Building Simulator game in the universe.

(Truth be told: It’s probably the only Linux Distro Building Simulation game in the universe.)

So what exactly do you do in a Linux Distro Building game?

So glad you asked!  Here’s some examples of the thrilling challenges you’ll find in Linux Tycoon:

1. Analyzing and selecting software packages.
2. Fixing Bugs.
3. Managing volunteers and paid staff.
4. Keeping the total size (in MB) of your Distro at a reasonable level.
5. And so much more!

Seriously though.  It is fun.  (It is a game, after all.  You don’t actually fix bugs yourself.)

Basically take all the fun parts of building your own Linux Distro… and take out all the work.  Bam! Instant entertainment!

A few things worth noting:

1. Linux Tycoon is presently available for Linux, MacOS X, Windows and DOS (seriously).
2. I’m not joking.  Linux Tycoon runs on DOS.
3. Linux Tycoon only costs $5 with source code available under the GPL.
