If you like plumbing and strategy, you may be interested in the revival (among others) of XBattle, a multi player strategy game released in the '90s, under Unix and X-Windows at the time.
This java version reuses the gameplay, graphisms and original commands; it is now based on a client-server model.

The idea to rewrite came from problems at game end (due to huge network traffic) when playing at home : the original game concentrates computations on the server and uses the X-Windows remote display model. I have also spent a lot of time (nights...) to play with it !

Client and server have a GUI to ease game setting and launch. You just have to enter server IP or hostname, choose a color and run !
Not everything has been reimplemented : some keyboard commands and cell topologies are not present... but you can already play.

I hope you'll have fun playing with that good-ole-game ! :-)
