Kmamu
Kmamu is a shell script which will install icons for xmame (Multi Arcade
Machine Emulator)
into a folder on your KDE1 or KDE2 desktop.
Each icon will have the long description name as provided by xmame
-listgames,
and when clicked it will launch xmame with the appropriate game.
Obviously, in order to run this script you will need xmame.
The icons were originally created by MAMu_,
for MAME32,
for more information on MAME32 icons please visit http://www.mameicons.com/.
Although this is not strictly a KDE game it will come in handy for the KDE
and Mame fans.

Four Wins
This is a nice two player boardgame four Linux/KDE2. It follows the rules
of the
boardgame Connect Four (tm).
Each player is represented by a color (yellow and red). The goal of the
game is to get
four connected pieces of your color into a row, column or any diagonal.
This is done by
placing one of your pieces into any of the seven columns. A piece will
begin to fill a
column from the bottom, i.e. it will fall down until it reaches the ground
level or
another stone. After a move is done it is the turn of the other player.
This is repeated
until the game is over, i.e. one of the players has four pieces in a row,
column or
diagonal or no more moves are possible because the board is filled.
