I've packaged empire (aka vms-empire), a turn based console strategy game.

He rewrote the program in 1987/1988. Not so long ago ESR adopted the
program, added color and tweaked it a bit.
Version seems to be a GPL 0.something-preprepre. It is free.
The upstream tarball can be found at ftp://locke.ccil.org/pub/esr/.
A debian package can be found at
http://debian.palfrader.org/packages/all/empire/
I'll ask someone to upload it soon.
yours,
