About: I've been making games for ComputerCraft for awhile now and have quite a large library. This page catalogues each of them, with how to play them and how to get them. These games are high quality and good fun, ranging from 5 minute time wasters to games you can lose an hour or so to. They will work with most distributions of ComputerCraft since 1.5, and I am regularly updating most of them with new features and bug fixes.
All games on this list will require http to be enabled on your machine. There are two ways you can get them:
Catalogue Browser: The Catalogue Browser will provide you a list of each of the games on this page that you can browse and download at your leisure, as well as look for new updates and (in later versions) screenshots. To run the catalogue, type the following command into any computer terminal:
pastebin run KZsuv1pc
Alternatively, you can download the installers from the pastebin codes provided in each games description.
Games:
Spoiler
About: This is an implementation of the 1981 puzzle game Sokoban (warehouse keeper in Japanese) by Thinking Rabbit for the NEC-PC. The goal is to rearrange the creates in the warehouse so they are all on the golden storage squares. You can only push the crates from behind, and only one can be pushed at a time. This version contains 3 level packs- the original 50 puzzles from the MS-DOS version of the game and two packs from Boxxle 1 and 2, which were both versions of the game released for the Nintendo gameboy.

About: The original Lode Runner is a game from 1983 designed and programmed by Doug Smith and published by Brøderbund Software for the Apple][ and later other platforms. The game is pretty simple. Collect the money in each level, then get to the portal. You can climb ladders and monkey bars, and shoot out the ground on the diagonal next to you to reach hidden treasure. Making the game harder are the Mad Monks, that chase you and steal gold, which you can only fight by trapping in the ground you shoot out. Gold Runner is a full rewrite of that game for ComputerCraft.

About: A tetris inspired falling block puzzle game. You control pillars of three block, which can be guided to the bottom and cycled through but never rotated. The goal is to move the falling columns of blocks into the well and connect lines of 3 or more colours horizontally, vertically or diagonally. Chaining combos by creating lines that create more lines will rapidly increase your score. Multiplayer mode and more scoring features planned.

Snake Maze
Spoiler
About: You guide Sammy, Clyde or Joss through a large open-ended Maze in search of 16 golden eggs. In addition to being a mouth-watering treat, when all eggs have been collected a portal will open, allowing you to leave the Maze and earn a slew of bonus points. As you travel you'll have to avoid mushrooms, walls and yourself as you collect bugs and eggs to keep your energy levels up. If you energy drops to zero, you'll perish! Scattered around the level are fire bugs, which will make your snake's mouth red-hot. Hit the space bar and you'll spew a stream of fire forwards continuously for one or two seconds. This can be used to demolish walls but will also burn you if you're not careful!

Spoiler
About: This is a tile based trapping game inspired by the game "Rodent's Revenge" by Christopher Lee Fraley in 1991 as part of the Microsoft Entertainment Pack, a series of games designed to sell Windows 3.1 to DOS gamers. In the game the player is able to 'push' blocks around with the goal of trapping the enemy players into a single tile. Trapping all the enemies on screen would convert them into points that could be collected. Rat Trap is similar in style to that game but makes some modifications.

I'm still working on this post, reconciling each of the games I've posted here and trying to get them up to standard which is a large job and is taking a long time. Once this is complete, I will not be updating my previous forum posts and questions or comments relating to my games can be directed here. Thank you for reading, and enjoy :)/>
