Homebrew game. Compilation of 5 games:

Craps: a gambling game for 1 player, where bets are made on the outcome of rolling a pair of dice. On the first roll, totals of 7 or 11 win even money (a natural), while totals of 2, 3 or 12 lose(craps). Any other totals (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10) are known as the point. If you roll your point again, before rolling a 7, you win twice your wager. The player begins the game with a wallet of $25.00. Minimum bets are $1.00, maximum bets are $9.00. You may only bet funds that you actually have,and the game ends if the balance of your wallet reaches $0.00. The maximum allowable winnings that can be held in the players wallet is $255.00.

Moon Lander: simulates a lunar landing for 1 player. The objective is to set down on the lunar surface at a safe velocity using limited fuel. The game begins with the lander descending at a velocity of 10 feet per second, from a height of 100 feet. The initial supply of fuel on board is 50 units. Burning 5 units of fuel cancels gravity, and holds your velocity constant. A burn over 5 units will result in upward acceleration, while a burn below 5 allows gravity to increase downward velocity. If you run out of fuel, the lander will free-fall, and crash on the surface. Final velocity of 5 feet per second, or less, is considered a safe landing.

Repeat After Me: a memory game for 1 player. The computer plays a series of random numbers(single digits from 1 to 4), which you try to match by repeating the numbers on the keyboard. Each time you correctly enter the sequence, another digit is added to increase difficulty. If you make a mistake the game ends, and the computer shows your score - the highest number of digits you successfully memorized. The maximum sequence the computer can generate is 25 digits.

Space Rescue: An action game for 1 player. You are the pilot of a space ship, responding to a distress call from a mining operation in deep space. On your way to the rescue, you encounter a field of asteroids. A collision would destroy your ship, so you will need all your skill as a pilot to successfully navigate through the asteroids.

Nim: a game of math and logic for 2 players. This game is played with a single pile of 21 stones, and has 2 variations. The players alternate turns, and remove 1, 2, or 3 stones. The game ends once the pile is empty. The object of the game depends on the Nim version being played. In version 1, the player removing the last stone loses. In version 2, the player removing the last stone wins.
