Games and Toys
KDE recognizes the value of recreation and fun in life. That's why the KDEGames team have delivered a wide variety of games with stunning graphics and engaging gameplay, keeping you entertained and occupied for hours. Pick a card, avoid bouncing balls, or even conquer the world, all from the convenience of your computer. But be careful. It's addicting.
