Cube 2 Sauerbraten is pretty good! Free arena shooter with built-in level editor
The original Cube is also fun, at least as a singleplayer game and comes with a lot of SP maps. The SPMP (or MPSP, i don't remember :-P) mode also allows playing the MP maps with randomly spawned bots.
The AssaultCube fork adds more realistic environments (relatively to the original game anyway), though it is fully MP oriented. But you can still play with bots.
There are still people playing AssaultCube?
TBH i have no idea, i only played with bots myself.
It used to be really fun and there was a glitch used in competitive and in a separate community altogether called “hax jump” that allowed you to jump higher than normal if you crouch jumped twice in succession.
One of the developers, stef, led a crusade against it and tried to squash the bug. IIRC it les to people forking the code to include it.
Finally, the amount of ACTUAL hackers was so prevalent that it was annoying. I think in the new version they ended up adding a login feature that wasn’t required. However, I had quit before that happened. I tried to download it again recently, but I can’t even access the masterserver. Maybe they finally banned VPNs
