This page lists various Free Software projects that Reverse Engineer. Reverse Engineering is either making a game similar to one already made, or editing an engine to accept game files for games it could not previously support. Reverse Engineering means building a program to emulate or be compatible with another program. Reverse Engineering is typically completed to either make a program that is like another for a different system, building a similar program under a different license, or to make a similar program with a different focuses or intended range of features. Sometimes reverse engineering projects are criticized as "reinventing the wheel"; which is to recreate a technology that is almost exactly the same as another (with known justification) typically out of spite.
