Tenés Empanadas Graciela (TEG) is a turn-based strategy game available in 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 strategy board game Risk.
Using a server, several players can fight for world domination and chat with each other. Maps are used as battlefields. The game is available in languages including Spanish, German, French and Polish.
In 1996, Argentine software developer 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. Other developers, graphic artists, and translators subsequently joined the project.
TEG was an early supporter of the FOSS multiplayer client-server system GGZ Gaming Zone.[1] [2]
In around 2014, the project moved from SourceForge to GitHub.[3]
Tenés Empanadas Graciela was reviewed as a notable Risk clone by free and open-source software associated media outlets, such as Linux Journal[4] and Linux Magazine.[5] In 2007, Linux.com reviewed Tenés Empanadas Graciela again as a notable Risk clone.[6] Linux Game Tome lists the game with 4.2 of 5 stars.[7]
The game was reviewed in 2012 by republica.com.[8]
The game is available Ubuntu,[9] Debian,[10] Gentoo Linux,[11] and Arch Linux,[12] and was ported to other operating systems such as macOS.[13]
An Argentine online version of the game is called WebTeg which allows users to play with just a web browser.
