OpenMortal is a fighting game and is a parody of the proprietary game Mortal Kombat. It is licensed under the GPL.[1] The latest version of the game is 0.7.1 released on June 15th, 2006. It is written in the Perl and C++ programming languages.

Instructions are provided on how to create new, realistic characters, so players and their friends could serve as actors for the game.[2] As of 2008-05-30, there were 24 characters at http://openmortal.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/characters.cgi.

The game is not available in Debian, because its would-be maintainer found that it seemed dead since 2006, and thus he would have to deal with all the potential bug reports.[3]
