Pinebook gaming thread

While Pinebook is not a very powerful machine, it's still quite capable. And while it's certainly not a "gaming laptop", it could still run graphically less demanding games quite well. Moreover, great battery life could keep you entertained throughout a long trip, for instance. What games do you play on your Pinebook?

One of best genres to play on a Pinebook in my opinion, is roguelike games. Great keyboard, optimal size and weight (for 11.6"), long battery life - all this makes Pinebook an ultimate portable roguelike machine. And as roguelikes are usually very modest with system requirements - it's a perfect kind of games to play on Pinebook. NetHack, Angband, Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup - all they can be played on a Pinebook, and it's a very enjoyable experience.

My personal favorite is NetHack, which I do play quite often on my Pinebook:

Many major roguelikes are already packed in most distros repositories.
