Rephrase: Crystal Space is a mature, full-featured software development 
kit (SDK) providing real-time 3D graphics for applications such as games 
and virtual reality. It is free (LGPL) and cross-platform (Windows, 
GNU/Linux, Mac OS X).

Rephrase: The project encompasses two main components:

Rephrase: A modular, configurable, and extensible rendering engine 
supporting OpenGL and advanced features such as shaders and lighting 
systems, physics, 3D sounds, animation blending, foliage, terrain, 
virtual file system, physical peripherals, and more.

Rephrase: Entity system supporting higher-level functionality, such as 
runtime package environment (CELStart), generic event system, avatar and 
camera management, artificial intelligence (path finding, steering 
behaviors, neural networks and genetic algorithms), vehicles, and more.

Rephrase: Related projects: YoFrankie, PlaneShift, Blender 
(blender2crystal), CrystalArchitect.

(I omitted CrystalCore because it appears to be mostly dead.)
