Owners of Android-compatible phones such as the HTC magic and the T-Mobile G1 will be pleased as punch to learn that there are some great free games out there just waiting to be downloaded from the Android Market. Here are a few to try - and a few to avoid!
Mahjongg - A fairly faithful rendition of the Japanese pairs game. Unfortunately, the touchscreen is the only input device that can be used with this game, which pretty much rules it out unless you have very slender fingers to select the tiny images with.
mem - This simon-says game, in which you have to press an icon as soon as possible after its counterpart is displayed, features some pretty zany sound effects, and it works well with the touch screen, but the long term appeal is fairly limited.
Minspace War - The small screen and fiddly keypad controls make this otherwise promising shoot-em-up very difficult to enjoy. Avoid.
MisMisMatch - In this game, boxes on a grid need to be matched up with adjacent boxes by flipping them with your finger. The touch screen implementation is excellent, the tutorial mode is very helpful for beginners, and there are a range of difficulty settings to keep you interested when you start to improve. Well worth a download.
Pac-Man by Namco - Help Pac Man in his quest for pills, oranges, and ghosts around the famous blue mazes of this arcade classic. This arcade perfect version of the old favourite, complete with the inter-level animations featured on the original coin-op machine. However, the lack of a joypad really lets this game down and prevents you from being able to get out of the tight spots as quickly as you often need to.
Pop Pop Popcorn - Heat popcorn arranged on a grid by holding your finger over it until it pops, but watching that you do not burn any surrounding popcorn while you are at it. Of all the games for the Android platform that use the touch screen as an input device, this is one of the best.
Santas War on Terror - Help Santa take on the forces of terror in this side scrolling platform game. Although the name might be the cause of some amusement, the fiddlesome controls, weak visuals and predictable gameplay mean that this game has little more than novelty appeal.
TxtSpeed - If you are looking for a game to help you build up your text message typing speed, then TxtSpeed could be just the ticket. If you are not, however, then you will probably want to give this game, which is somewhat low on thrills, a miss.
