Adventure game ‘Trauma‘ topped the list of Ubuntu’s top selling paid apps in December.

Last month’s top selling Software Centre item – the critically acclaimed puzzle game Braid – drops two places to 3.

The top 10 chart is largely dominated by gaming titles. Unigine’s RTS Oil Rush makes 4th place; Steel Storm: Burning Retribution captures 5th place, and world famous puzzler World of Goo sticks itself to 7th.

The recently-released puzzle game Memory Owl snags itself 10th place following our review of it back in early December.

Free Apps

Much like the paid application chart above the top 10 free applications downloaded through the Ubuntu Software Centre are also packed full of games.

MMORPG Ryzom, which Benjamin Kerensa reviewed on OMG! last month, tops the list, whilst space-based MMORPG ‘Vendetta Online’ fires into 3rd.

Of the non-gaming titles to make the top 10 are multi-platform to-do app Wunderlist – which is yet to be made available on Ubuntu 11.10 – and a demo version of intuitive clip-art finding tool ‘Clipardo‘.
