The following is a list of games that are not included in any of the previous GNOME Games subsections:
Five or More is the GNOME port of the once popular Windows™ game called Color Lines. The objective is to align, as often as possible, five or more objects of the same color causing them to disappear.
Four-in-a-row is another matching game in which the objective is to build a line of four of your marbles while trying to stop your opponent, human or computer, from building a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line of their own.
Gnometris is a clone of the classic falling-block game, Tetris. The objective of the game is to create complete horizontal lines of blocks, which will disappear creating more space for more possible points. The blocks come in seven different shapes made from four blocks each: one straight, two L-shaped, one square, and two S-shaped. The blocks fall from the top center of the screen in a random order, allowing you to rotate and move them as needed.
Iagno is a computer version of the game Reversi, more popularly known as Othello. It is a two-player strategy game with an 8 by 8 board including tiles that are black on one side and white on the other side. The object is to flip as many of your opponent's tiles to your color as possible without your opponent flipping your tiles. This is done by trapping your opponents tiles between two tiles of your own color.
Klotski is a clone of the original Klotski game in which the objective is to move the patterned block to the area bordered by green markers.
Mines, or gnomine, is a puzzle game where you locate mines floating in an ocean using only your brain and a little bit of luck. Mines is a clone of the popular Windows™ game, Minesweeper.
Same Gnome is a highly-addictive puzzle game where the object is to remove the most amount of marbles in as few moves as possible. Marbles that are of the same color and that are adjacent to each other are removed as a group. The remaining marbles will then collapse, filling in the gaps, forming new groups.
GNOME Sudoku is a logic-based placement puzzle in which the objective is to fill the 9 by 9 grid so that each column, row, and each of the nine 3 by 3 boxes contains the digits 1 through 9. The puzzle starts off with a partially completed grid allowing for only one solution.
Tali is like poker, only with dice and no money. The objective is to create the best hand by rolling the five dice three times in which your two re-rolls may include any or all of the dice.
Tetravex is a puzzle where the pieces must be positioned so that the same numbers are touching each other. The game is timed and stored in a system-wide scoreboard.
