Tenés Empanadas Graciela (short TEG) is a turn-based strategy game distributed by several popular Linux distributions. The idea for this free and open-source software program came from the board game TEG, which itself is based on the popular Risk game but differs in many aspects of the rules.
Gameplay
Using a Server several players can fight each other for world domination and of course also chat together. Various maps are used as battlefield and also several languages like Spanish, German, French and Polish are available.
History
In 1996 the Argentina Ricardo "riq" Quesada started developing the game, and released it under the GNU GPL-2-0-only. He stopped working on it for a few years but brought the project back to life in early 2000. Some developers, graphic artists and translators joined the project located at SourceForge's servers and made it a success.
TEG was an early supporter of the FOSS multiplayer client-server system GGZ Gaming Zone.[1][2]
Around 2014 the project moved from Sourceforge to GitHub.[3]
