Windows Games

Windows™-based games do not operate natively in Kubuntu. There are, however, applications available which allow playing some Windows™-based games. Cedega™ (listed below) is popular among gamers, although it isn't a free service. PlayOnLinux™ (listed below) is another popular application which is free of charge. Wine™ (listed below) is a more advanced application. For gaming, both Cedega™ and PlayOnLinux™ are recommended over Wine™.
