My Favorite Game comes to Linux: Seven Kingdom

I spent my most of my childhood times doing mainly these 3 things:-

1. Playing Lego

2. Cycling
3. Playing Seven Kingdoms!

Seven Kingdoms is a Real-time Strategy (RTS) game. You are a king and and you have to build your empire so as to conquor the world.

However, the game has a slight issue. It can’t go in Full Screen mode or even maximize it. It would only play at a resolution of 824 x 645. It kinda spoils all the fun as you can scroll freely around.

And when you go in the main menu, it says “Quit to Windows” which is quite funny xP

To install it on Ubuntu or its derivatives, type this in the terminal:-

sudo apt-get install 7kaa

Enjoy!!!

A smile from UoM

A beautiful girl smiled at me today. I said to myself:

WTF is wrong with her?

I waited for her to speak. She told me to vote for ‘Party X’ for the upcoming Student Union’s election…
