Cube 2: Sauerbraten

released on Dec 31, 2004

Cube 2: Sauerbraten (German for "sour roast", also known as Sauer) is a cross-platform, Quake-like first-person shooter that runs on Microsoft Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and Mac OS X using OpenGL and SDL. The game features single-player and multiplayer gameplay and contains an in-game level editor. The game engine is free and open-source software, under the zlib License, with commercial support available from the developer's own business counterpart, Dot3 Labs. The game media is released under various non-free licenses. The aim of the project is not to produce the most features and highest-quality graphics possible, but rather to allow map-editing to be done in real-time within the game, while keeping the engine source code small and elegant.

The team instagib mode single-handedly makes this the best and fastest-paced first person shooter I've ever played.

middle school computer lab gaming with the boys!!!!

Fun game, good multiplayer; single player maps aren't as numerous as in the first game but as in that game I believe they are all user-made so can't really fault anyone for it or anything. Soundtrack is fantastic, visuals aren't going to blow anyone's minds today but have a high gloss charm to them, the guns feel great. The sound effects and character design may seem a bit unusual to some, but I assure you, out of all the Cube engine games these may be the most tolerable (even the CS inspired game has some corny hit-mark sounds).
