Maybe you want to try some sokoban game (I think there are several of
them, e.g. ksokoban). If you like to play adventure games, try nethack
(there are graphical interfaces, like nethack-qt, or falconseye). I
also like to play tuxracer from time to time.

If you want info on more games, install aptitude and check the games
section.
