Unlock Old School Arcade Games in Your Mac?s Terminal

Unlock Old School Arcade Games in Your Mac’s TerminalWe here at Lifehacker are all about staying productive, but sometimes you just need to take a break. For those times, there's this old-but-fun tip: with a few terminal commands, you can open up games like 5?5, Pong, Solitaire, Snake, Tetris, and others in your Mac's terminal.

To start them up, just open your Terminal app (in /Applications/Utilities) and type emacs into the prompt. Press Enter to open it up, press Esc then x. Next, just type the name of the game you want to play and enjoy (note that different versions of OS X have different games, so see what you have first!). The games are simple and the graphics are not great but it is a perfect way to power down and relax without getting so engrossed in a game that you end up spending hours on it. Hit the link to read more, and have fun (but don't forget to work)!
