“The service is meant to offer a simple and more convenient
method for Ubuntu and other such Linux based OS users to download
their favourite Linux games that are available commercially that
come with bundled DRM. The games have packages and tar balls for
Debian, Ubuntu and fedora Linux distributions.

“Of the games available for download in Gameolith, 3 are
available for purchase as of now whereas the other 2 can be
ordered. An interesting fact is that many of these games have
already found a place in the Ubuntu Software Centre with the
remaining waiting for their respective turns to mark an entry.”
