Zane,
let me throw in 3 cents:
Sokoban - native
Tetris - vested
Yahtzee - vested
Maybe Tetris and Yahtzee are on some of the collections suggested by
other answers, but Sokoban (at least this version) will probably not be
there: this was my first C program (after HELLO_WORLD.C ;-). It dates
back to 1988 (perfectly on-topic! ;-) and was originally developed on a
VAX. One function was originally written in MACRO-32 because I initially
couldn't figure out how to deal with string descriptors, but I replaced
it with a C version in 2000, when I ported the game to an Alpha.
One of the development goals was to save bandwidth, and the result was
that it is possible to play using a 300 baud line, even though a
stopwatch is running on the VT screen.
Let me know if you want a BACKUP saveset. The complete Sokoban stuff,
with program sources and maps for 50 levels, including VAX and Alpha
.EXEs, is 63 files, 212 blocks total.
Yahtzee is 46+190 blocks for VAX+Alpha .EXE, Tetris is 26+104 blocks. Of
the latter, I also have a DECwindows version, as of some other games.
All mentioned games known good on OpenVMS/AXP V7.1-2 here, so they
should be working on 7.2, too.

I'm trying to get a selection of games that will
work on a Serial Terminal
up and running on my OpenVMS server (a PWS 433au running OpenVMS 7.2-1H1).
I'm finding that most games that are available for VMS date back to VAX/VMS
V3 or earlier. Does anyone know of any besides the following that will
work?
Advent 4.0A - Native
Dungeon 3.2B - Native
Empire 4.0 - Native
NetHack 3.3.1 - Native
Moria 4.5 - Vested
Rogue 3.0 - Vested (doesn't seem to display right)
King - Native
Spacwr - Native (very old Star Trek game)
Spacemine - Native (Ported from an old book of Basic Games I've had
for about 20 Years)
Angband 2.8.0 - Native (but requires DECwindows)
I'm really looking for copies of the following that will work on an Alpha
running OpenVMS:
Angband (that will work on a serial terminal)
Rogue (a version that works right)
zcode emulator
Decent Star Trek game
DND
Moria 4.8 or 5.0
Newer version of Empire
Conquest
I'm also interested in any other good ones that I might not know about.
Zane
