Open Source C++ Games for Linux

AirSim is an open-source, cross platform simulator for drones, cars and more vehicles, built on Unreal Engine with an experimental Unity release in the works. It supports software-in-the-loop simulation with popular flight controllers such as PX4 & ArduPilot and hardware-in-loop with PX4 for physically and visually realistic simulations. It is developed as an Unreal plugin that can simply be dropped into any Unreal environment. AirSim's development is oriented towards the goal of creating a platform for AI research to experiment with deep learning, computer vision and reinforcement learning algorithms for autonomous vehicles. For this purpose, AirSim also exposes APIs to retrieve data and control vehicles in a platform independent way. AirSim is fully enabled for multiple vehicles. This capability allows you to create multiple vehicles easily and use APIs to control them.

OpenCity is another 3D city simulator. You can build residential, commercial and industrial zones then supply them with necessary goods and watch them grow up. Version 0.0.6stable is now available for download. Any feature request/bug report is welcome

This is the official C++ source code repository of the Bullet Physics SDK: real-time collision detection and multi-physics simulation for VR, games, visual effects, robotics, machine learning etc. We are developing a new differentiable simulator for robotics learning, called Tiny Differentiable Simulator, or TDS. The simulator allows for hybrid simulation with neural networks. It allows different automatic differentiation backends, for forward and reverse mode gradients. TDS can be trained using Deep Reinforcement Learning, or using Gradient based optimization (for example LFBGS). In addition, the simulator can be entirely run on CUDA for fast rollouts, in combination with Augmented Random Search. This allows for 1 million simulation steps per second. It is highly recommended to use PyBullet Python bindings for improved support for robotics, reinforcement learning and VR. Use pip install pybullet and checkout the PyBullet Quickstart Guide.

XiangQi Wizard (Chinese Chess Wizard) is a powerful XiangQi (chinese chess) program, which supports UCCI engines. XQWizard Light is the Mobile version for Windows CE and Java ME. ElephantEye is the UCCI engine in XQWizard with strong AI.

The project is the codebase for an AI agent named Cicero developed by Facebook Research. It is designed to play the board game Diplomacy by combining open-domain natural language negotiation with strategic planning. The repository includes training code, model checkpoints, and infrastructure for both language modelling (via the ParlAI framework) and reinforcement learning for strategy agents. It supports two variants: Cicero (which handles full “press” negotiation) and Diplodocus (a variant focused on no-press diplomacy) as described in the README. The codebase is implemented primarily in Python with performance-critical components in C++ (via pybind11 bindings) and is configured to run in a high‐GPU cluster environment. Configuration is managed via protobuf files to define tasks such as self-play, benchmark agent comparisons, and RL training. The project is now archived and read-only, reflecting that it is no longer actively developed but remains publicly available for research use.

Redqueen is an UCI (Universal Chess Interface) only compatible chess engine written in C++.

FEAR is a development kit helping software engineers create advanced artificial intelligence in synthetic characters with simplicity and efficiency. The project includes reusable AI components, portable framework and interfaces to realtime 3D games.

Software for the competitions on computational intelligence in games.

A programming game in Beta. Binaries are available for Windows. Versions for POSIX/C++ compatible platforms are planned.

Tick5 is a board game known as gomoku, omok, piskvorky or wuziqi. Tick5 has a built-in AI and also allows users to build their own AI with script language Lua. Tick5 runs cross-platform and has both GUI and textual version.

Codewars is an client-server game. You have to write a robot-program in any programminglanguage, which fights against other robots in an simulated arena. A musst see for fans of artificial intelligence and coding.

OliveChess is a simple chess engine compatible with modern chess interfaces such as ChessBase products, Arena and XBoard/Winboard. The engine supports UCI and XBoard protocols. Note: in order to use it as an xboard engine you may need Polyglot tool to be installed first

Simontacchi is a Winboard/UCI compatible chess engine that intends to grow via development community involvement. The goal of the project is to create a chess engine that rivals the strongest commericial and amateur programs.
