    Free LAN game ?

    Halo people

    I work at a big call centre and wonder if you know any interesting, free game to play for my colleagues and me, when we have some idle time ?

    One of us found some nice waste of time here: Addictive Games ... but that's not multiplayer ...

    Thank you ...

    Re: Free LAN game ?

    Why not go for the origional Doom or Quake. Both can be played over a LAN and can be good for a quick time out. Doom was released as Shareware and you paid for the last few levels, but if you get the shareware version you can still play multiplayer over LAN.

    Thanks ... looks nice indeed ... hope its simple because ... people won't be willing to read a manual.

    They want to start a game and off you go ...

    Cov,

    I take it that you've got admin rights on the PCs you use to be able to install any of the games mentioned ?.
