Armagetron Advanced is a 3D game based on the light cycle racing in the movie "Tron". You have to control a light cycle that can only turn in steps of 90 degrees, leaves a solid wall behind and can not be stopped. The aim is to survive the longest of all players by not crashing into any walls.

This version of Armagetron Advanced can only be used as a network game server. It does not have graphical output and can be controlled via the text console.

The normal Armagetron Advanced used for playing is also capable to serve games, but will require X to display its graphics, will provide a player and is therefore unsuited for permanent game servers.
