GNOME Games is an open source software project, a graphical application that provides users with an easy-to-use interface for browsing and managing their games libraries.

With the GNOME Games app you can easily locate the game you want to play right now and launch it. The software also comes with support for several emulators and gaming consoles.

GNOME Games has been developed as part of the GNOME desktop environment, but you should be able to use it under any other open-source window manager or graphical desktop environment.
