While there are plenty of serious apps out there for the Android smartphone platform, you might be pleased to learn that there are a number of great games already available from the Android Market. Here are a few that will not cost a penny to download:
4NumGuess: An obtuse number guessing game, which lacks anything in the way of tangible instructions, leaving the user to figure out what they are meant to do themselves. All well and good in theory, but in practice the on-screen keypad is a little too small and fiddly to make you want to persist with it.
Amazed - This maze game uses the accelerometer as a control device, and requires you to tilt the phone to guide a white ball along a 2-dimensional path towards the goal. It uses a grid-based maze with a lot of 90 degree turns, and is infuriatingly addictive.
Asquare - In this game you have to match three shapes by swapping any two, the aim of the game being to match as many trios in as few turns as possible, with your score being based on your ratio of turns to matches. There is no real game over situation, so you can just play it until you get bored or have to do something else.
Backgammon - This mobile version of the classic boardgame is a decent version featuring all that you would expect. However, the game also serves as a demonstration of how hard it is to drag and drop using a touchscreen, as every slight loss of contact is interpreted as a drop. It is only marginally more playable with the mini trackball.
Bonsai Blast - The aim of the game with Bonsai Blast is to shoot balls at an oncoming line of balls before it gets to the edge of the screen. The graphics are terrific, but aiming with the touch screen can be a bit hit or miss.
Brain Genius Deluxe - Whether you are already smart and want to stay that way, or you want to improve your IQ, then there is no substitute for a proper suite of brain training games, including SuDoku, Sliding Puzzle, Crosspix and Jigsaw. You can use the accelerometer and touch screen for most of the games, but after a while you will probably end up preferring the joystick.
Bubble Bash demo - This is a very similar game to Bonsai Blast, although this time the balls are just floating free rather than coming at you in lines. As with the aforementioned game, the aiming mechanism is a little on the inaccurate side, but the graphics are pretty nifty looking.
