	+--[ Checking out gaming on OpenBSD
	+
	+The last few weeks I have been on a bit of a gaming binge, work has been
	+quite full-on so at the end of the day I have been relaxing with a few
	+games. OpenBSD has a fantastic resource for finding games that work
	+called playonbsd [0]. The best thing about this is they provide the
	+database used for the list over on GitHub [1], this has led to some very
	+nice CLI tools being made for it. By far the best tool created I have
	+come across is by Hakadan called pobsd-rs [2], it's how I have found so
	+many great games.
	+
	+
	+My go-to game has been Tales of Maj’Eyal (tome4) [3] which is
	+a roguelike game, you can explore randomly generated dungeons and follow
	+a main questline to progress through the story. There are so many
	+characters builds you can create there is always something new to try
	+out.
	+
	+
	+As a quick pick-me-up game I have been playing the terminal game Curse
	+of War [4], it's a strategy game where you play as a country's overall
	+commander must defeat other countries. No major updates have been
	+released since 2013 but a has had a few tweaks over the years. I could
	+find no packages for it however a simple git clone and make produced
	+zero compile issues on OpenBSD or Alpine Linux.
	+
	+
	+It is such a simple game with basic controls and goals but I find it
	+a perfect game for playing as a quick pick-me-up. I also found an old
	+youtube video [5] about it from years ago that might be worth a watch to
	+see if it's your kind of jam and get a better understanding of the game.
	+
	+
	+OpenBSD has some great options available for games, checkout out the
	+resources below if you are interested in a bit of downtime.
