Hey all,
Here is an old classic sandbox rpg from the Raymond E Feist universe called Betrayal At Krondor:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betrayal_at_Krondor
It is freely downloadable abandonware:

It runs fine in Dosbox apparently, but would it not be awesome to have it run natively on the n900?
Well, in the same manner as the GemRB game engine can 'run' infinity engine game data, this clever bod has created the xBak engine which will run the game data of Sierra adventure games:
http://xbak.sourceforge.net/
The game has previously worked on a Nokia 770 tablet via xBak:

The project still appears to be alive, what say the more technically astute, is there any chance that we may get a native recompile of Betrayal At Krondor to play on our n900's?
Regards
