What this page is about

It looks like Wesnoth is a major reason that several Linux projects are improving only slowly. We sincerely apologize to all the developers on Debian and elsewhere out there who have ceased being productive because our game has eaten their brains. Here is the dreadful proof...

Wesnoth appears in several blogs

  • Games are bad for Debian. Especially time-killers like wesnoth. They make me very unproductive, even though I'm not playing any of the higher difficulties, I cannot resist the urge to play through all campaigns [...]

  • If you want to stay productive don't ever run the following command:
sudo aptitude install wesnoth ; wesnoth

Is "Kills all my time" a good reason for a RC-Bug? I mean, if you install it, you can hardly stop playing, therefore it renders all other installed software useless. I think wesnoth should be removed ASAP from the archive...

  • Battle for Wesnoth seems to become a real threat for the Debian project. More and more Debian developers get sucked into the world of elves, dwaves, orcs, zombies and mages — and only few return...

  • Do not under any circumstances apt-get install wesnoth! It’s quite addictive and very good. Currently worried about getting anything done for the next… errrr… year? It’s been ages since I’ve really gotten into a game. I think this may actually be one I’ll get pretty into. Rock on Wesnoth developers!

  • The game is engaging and you will soon find yourself immersed in it. However, steer clear if you are looking for something mindless, because in order to win you will need good logic skills and you will be required to think.

Players comment about Wesnoth

  • Stable, beautiful (graphics, sounds and music), neither too easy nor too hard, cool story and characters, usable interface, great tutorial... This is one of the best games I've ever played.

  • Wow, this game is amazing! I wish I'd gotten it earlier !! It has a really professional look and feel.

  • found the game in the net: played it for hours (and still playing it). showed it to my kids: they still play and always want the newest version (they know most units stats... like they knew all the pokemons). showed it to my friends: lots of ’em like and play it (the ’over 30’ fraction). kids showed it to their friends: guess what happend... (the ’under 15’ fraction).

  • It's been fantastic watching this come together. Talented programmers, artists, musicians, campaign/story developers - Wesnoth is a really special example of how open source can accomplish great things. Thanks to Dave and all the others who have worked hard to create this game!
