Here are the games with ports to Alpha/PPC/SPARC:</p> <ul> <li>[Civilization: Call to Power</li> </ul> <p>](<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civilization:_Call_to_Power">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civilization:_Call_to_Power</a>)</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myth_(computer_game)">Myth II: Soulblighter</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railroad_Tycoon">Railroad Tycoon II</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.lokigames.com/products/eus/">Eric’s Ultimate Solitaire</a></li> <li><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heroes_of_Might_and_Magic_III">Heroes of Might and Magic III</a></li> </ul> <p>It is mind boggling that at this point in Linux history (2000-2002) that someone decided to port these! The great thing about GCC and SDL is cross compiling is pretty simple. With that said supporting these must have been a nightmare for Loki.</p>
