history
Project history and usage
Enigma is a long-running free software puzzle game inspired by Oxyd on the Atari ST and Rock'n'Roll on the Amiga, centered on guiding a marble through landscapes to uncover matching Oxyd stones.
Project history
The official README describes Enigma as a volunteer-developed puzzle game with influences from many game genres and more than 1000 original levels. The project is hosted on nongnu.org and in an official GitHub repository, with GPL licensing and a development mailing list for contributions.
The change log shows Enigma reaching version 1.00 with major level-pack, scoring, translation, and cross-platform work, followed by later releases that added levels, translations, new game objects, level-author tools, and internal engine rewrites. Version 1.30 moved the project from SDL 1.2 to SDL 2.0 and listed 2606 total bundled level variants across main levels, tutorials, Sokoball, Pentomino, Dejavu, and training content.
Adoption history
Enigma has unusually broad package-manager coverage for an open-source game: the input metadata lists packages for Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Alpine, Arch, Nix, MacPorts, openSUSE, and more. That breadth matches its cross-platform README, which discusses Windows, Mac OS X, Unix builds, and distribution packaging differences.
How it is used
Players run the `enigma` executable and use the mouse to control the marble through puzzle landscapes. Developers and packagers build it from source with the Autotools flow described in the README and the project documentation.
Why package nerds care
For package maintainers, Enigma is a classic open-source game package: it combines native code, SDL dependencies, large data and level packs, translations, and cross-platform build concerns. Its continued presence across many package managers makes it a useful example of a durable desktop game outside the usual terminal-tool ecosystem.
Timeline
- 2000s: Enigma established its 1.00 release line with cross-platform Unix, Windows, and Mac OS support, level-pack organization, translations, and score features.
- 2015: Official GitHub repository created.
- 2020s: Version 1.30 change log lists the move to SDL 2.0, new translations, new objects, and 2606 total bundled level variants.
Related projects
- The official description connects Enigma to Oxyd on the Atari ST and Rock'n'Roll on the Amiga as design inspirations.
