Hey i am looking some very good game for my Touch pro. I dont like thes gameloft etc copier over and over games but something you can play hours. It would be also nice if it was game known from pc. I have played heroes of might&magic, warcraft 2 and i loved them.

@ klooher,
Hi. The two games I am addicted to are Huff n' Puff, which is an Angry Birds-like game, and Ivy the Kiwi. Both have great looking graphics and they are fun to play. They are also challenging. Here is some info on both games:
Huff n' Puff is a game to kill the pigs in their structures, or homes. You play as the Big Bad Wolf and you want to go out and collect your "hams". You go and kill Pigs using your breath to blow the house down. What sets this game apart is the game supports two modes of play: tapping the screen, or using the microphone on your device to "blow" into. What this does is when you are in the level, it activates the Wolf's breath inhale so depending on how soft or hard you blow air into the mic also affects the power Wolf will use to blow down the house. you can toggle between the two. As the levels progress, you could use something like a chili pepper to eat and then use Wolf's breath to set fire to wodden structures. There are also two other food items (ice cream and onion).
The drawback on playing this game on the Touch Pro, or on any VGA screen device, is it was meant for WVGA screens. The game formats itself (but there will be black bars on top and bottom of the screen when the game is in its default landscape mode), but the touch points where to activate the soft buttons are a little off, so you wouldn't be touching some the icon(s) directly, but rather slightly above them. If you can live with that then this is a great choice to play. Suggest to use your stylus when playing.
The second game, Ivy the Kiwi, is a platformer game (side scroll game like Mario). You do not directly control Kiwi (which is a bird). Kiwi moves back and forth on its own. What you do is you use your stylus to create vines for Kiwi to get across from the start to the Goal. The concept itself is fairly simple, but the levels do get harder and more complexed. Each level is timed, and the optional objective is to collect feathers. In each level there are 10 feathers to grab. The game was eventually ported to the Nintendo Wii and the Nintendo DS. Windows Mobile seemed to have been forgotten, but it is available in the marketplace. I havent beaten this game yet. There are two tutprial videos in the game so you can get aquainted with the gameplay. The color scheme is fairly bland in a way, since there isn't much color but at the same time there is a beauty in the game visually. It looks hand drawn and the versions for Nintendo have much more color, but I still enjoy the game immensely.
If you are into an RPG style action/adventure game, play Zenonia. I havent tried it yet, and I have the .cab file for it but i havent installed it yet so i can't really say. I would suggest going on youtube and check these games out and watch the videos to see if you woudl like them (better yet, do a Google search). If you are into the RTS games, how about checking out Autumn Dynasty Lite? The game is really short, but you can replay it. Both Autumn Dynasty and Huff n' Puff are made by Touch Dimensions. Go on their site and look up those two games. Autumn Dynasty looks like artwork. Trust me, it does!
If you send me a PM, then i can send you links to where I found games and you can check them out for yourself. i found certain full-games (that are on sale through Handango and such) on certain hosting sites and downloaded them from there but I suggest if you are going to do that then to find the .cab file, extract on your PC and run a virus scanner just to be safe. Not sure if a desktop virus scanner would actually pick up a virus extracted out of a .cab file meant for Windows Mobile, but it gives me peace of mind, and I have yet to get a virus. I also have Lookout Mobile Security on my device too for the virus protection (i highly recommend this product).
I hope I was able to help. Please let me know if you found any interesting games.

Hello everyone, I have not had much of a chance to rest have been busy. Everyone who I PM hopefully you were able to get the emails from me.
Hey,what about this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857681
I am sure,you know it from your young years. However it is for more people and the graphics isn't something breathtaking,but the fun is much bigger.
thanks for your suggestion. i do remember that game! brings back memories. Def worth a look at! I love all types of games and graphics is something nice to look at but should not define how good a game is.

Hi TKETZ196,
Glad you enjoy Huff and Puff! We have just released an update with more levels, hope you like it.

Game
My favorites games are Skyforce and Bejaweled
I did want to add another post to this thread: if anyone has played Rolling With Katamari, comment on if you liked it or not. The cartoon graphics look nice as it seems to fit with the franchise. There is no real 3D graphics but the game is fun to play and it is addicting. Some of the levels are quite challenging.
One criticism is the on screen controls are not that great. I have to sometimes swipe 4 or 5 times to get the character and the rolling ball to go fast, as that is a speed boost in the game. It makes certain levels almost unbeatable with the time limit and what your objective is.
Other than that, I believe the game is worth checking out. It is a bizarre game but fun nonetheless.

Hi, I would have to check out Skyforce, and bejeweled is a very addicting game to play. I like to just pick up my phone and play a few rounds.
anymore suggestions on what other games you like to play?
the most addicting game i have ever play on my device (well if you like scenarios game-type like i do) is Age of Empires. :x
Related
Exactly as the title says.
Also post games you hate so we dont fall for them:
Games i've tried and recommend:
Age of empires gold (Name says it all)
Sim City 2000 (dito)
Dopewars (Addicting)
Teeter (Comes with the phone)
MC Poker (play online with other people Texas Hold 'em)
SkyForce Reloaded (Really fun; just try it)
Snood (aim and shoot "snoods" and match them up to destroy them)
Midnight Pool 3d ( Im a pool fanatic *demo comes with phone)
Games not to get:
Arvale II (just too simple / redundant. Its rpg style but it sucks (in my opinion))
Feel free to add on
Couple of old games I had that work well on my Sprint TP:
Acky's XP Breakout - VGA breakout-style game works nicely with the stylus
Atomic Cannon - Nice graphics on a Scorched Earth-type game. This one occasionally has a sound glitch where the sound stops, going into sound settings and disable/enable cycle fixes.
Bejeweled 2 - Of course. How can you go wrong?
Not all test on the TP but I was just looking on other forums about best games. And here is a list I made of games I wanna try
Call of Duty 2
Warfare Inc
Arvale and Arvale 2
Krally
minijetfight
UNDERCROFT
soldier ants.
SkyForce Reloaded
Lemonade inc
tots n togs
The Quest
Quake Mobile
Rayman Ultimate
pocket heroes
I would highly recommend Orions: Legend of Wizards and its expansions.
could you provide links as to where you get the games from...
yeah sure when i get to a computer. i gotta say some of those suggestions look really good. i warn you though if you get the arvale series only get the demos because you will be dissapointed
p.s. has anyone here actually played the quest? it looks interesting, but is it worth it?

I'd love to see some links also. Does Sim City 2000 work well with the Fuze controls? Do you play with keyboard out, or no? Does it display full screen landscape?
lemings
syberia
warcraft2
ufo
and if one goes into the whole
amiga, c64, snes and MAME emulator
scene then it's a different question i guess
diff people diff tastes i like fps games as much as
the next guy but dont really feel it works on pda's using
the touch screen
tombraider worked ok but required many many hardbuttons to
work so dont believe any htc devices ever had the option to stop
the game without softreset
thanks for the recommendations. what am i not seeing with dopewars? i tried it for two seconds and was already bored (and a bit confused).
by the way, please indicate if your recommendations require extensive use of the d-pad (touchpad). we all know it's not the best to use and i've had to stop playing one of my favorites (ms. pac-man) because it's clumsy to navigate in fast-paced games without hitting the back or home buttons.
I have always been addicted to Quartz 2 and am glad to see that they have released a VGA version.

I never softreset when I want to stop playing TombRaider. Press Home button, click right corner (HTC Task Manager), hold your finger/stylus and drag until you'll see Tomb Raider, move to X (you need to hold your finger cos' the screen flickers).
Have you found a method to map the keys? The arrow keys are kinda reversed.
Some of the games I've tested:
- Rayman, bad control, poor framerate
- Prince of Persia HD, moves heavily
- Assassins Creed, again moves heavly, the game is not fluid
- Zuma Deluxe, nice one
- DragonBall, zuma deluxe style game, kinda slow
- Warfare Inc, nice strategy game
- I244 Machines at War, again nice strategy game
- Spore, kinda slow
- Lemmings
- NFS, jerky game
- Cokoto CartRacer, jerky game, poor graphics
- Rats, nice platform game but it's so slowly on TP
- Age of Empires
- Warcraft 2, i cannot select items properly.. it's like the screen is not calibrated
- TombRaider, this one runs really good. If I can remap the keys as I want..
- Bejeweled 2, nice logic game
- Pac-Man
- Quake III Arena
- Call of Duty II
I recommend (you don't need to rely on D-PAD for these games):
- Bejeweled 2
- Zuma Deluxe
- DragonBall (even if it's a bit slow)
- Warfare Inc
- I244 Machines at War
- Age of Empires
And for show-off:
- COD 2
- Quake III Arena

You have to be careful which one you get.
Handmark Scrabble works perfectly with pixel doubling. Highly recommended.
EA Mobile Scrabble is gorgeous, but unbelievably bad. The control was designed for mobile phones and it lacks enormously important features. Just... don't.
I have Handmark Scrabble and am very glad to know that when my device arrives on Friday that my favorite game will work. Curious about pixel doubling though, wouldn't there actually need to be pixel quadrupling in order to go from qvga to vga?
none of the games i recomended need the dpad... simcity2000 works well just run the tut. it can be a bit of a strain on the eyes sometimes.
Concerning d-pad troubles. Could there be a way to disable the phone and windows/back buttons prior to starting a game and automatically re-enable them when you quit? This way games would be much more playable...

Technically, yes. But since most of the math involved is just multiplying by two on each axis, "doubling" does make some sense. And it's shorter and easier to say.
OK, that's good enough for me.

Resco Bubbles is nice, if you like Tweeter.
Hi, we all know that there is a huge lack of good, high quality games for android. So i would like to start a thread that picks the best out of the pool.
Here is my best-of:
- Jewellust (far better than Bejeweled)
- Devilry Huntress (like Jewellust)
- Christallight Defense
- Bonsai Blast
- Gameboid (Gameboy Advance Emulator, works great!)
- Buka
- Totemo (when its out!)
What are your favourite HIGH Quality Games?
retro defence
snesoid - works fine
scummvm - I've run monkey island and day of the tentacle so far
xgalaga
and light racer is pretty good fun also (although maybe not HQ)
+Recommended
Robo Defense
Orbs knock off
Labyrinth (the 3d tilt effect works brilliant ingame)
+Pretty
Super-G stunt (or anything by that company)
The doom emulator / port
Streets of rage 3 on gensoid
super mario world on snesoid
armadillo roll
buka
3d cube demo
+1 for Robo Defense
I also like these games:
Cestos - draw the directions you want the balls to go to try to push opponent's balls into a hole... play against people online makes it even more fun
Trap! - divide box into smaller boxes without getting hit by bouncing balls
Baseball Superstars 2009 is quite fun too even though I don't know much about baseball

All I know, that pretty much on my first Android boot and Market visit, I downloaded Doom from the Market, turned on my Wifi, and in the Doom application clicked on 'download shareware .WAD' and 'download sounds'. And it works fine.
So either something is wrong with your Doom installation or Hero, or (more likely) your WAD still isn't entirely compatible with _this_ port.

Its a good game, but as you say, its an iphone port. and it seems its not ported very well. its slow, its not responsive, so its not big fun.
What about HeroCraft and PDAMill. Why dont they port their really good games like Snails, Gamebox Solitaire to Android?
Not that impressed with the games. Keeping fingers crossed. Like Light Racer though.

So simple yet very addictive. Been playing a fair bit and still not exhausted the free version to warrant buying the full one yet.
I like ProjectINF(actually this game is super fun some lag though in my area) umm Dojo Cubed is fun, Guitar Hero World Tour, AWplanet has potential if you can put up with the movement.
Some other games
The Sims 3
Sim City Metropolis
Android Games That Deserve More Credit
Cubes Free
QR: http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?...edium%3DPage%26utm_campaign%3DAndrolib%20Page
Cubes Free is a great game that uses the accelerometer. You play as a little android running through a field of cubes. You tilt the screen left and right to dodge cubes in your way, if you don’t, you explode and die. The game has tons of levels, its not ad heavy at all which is always nice in a free app. The dev also offers a paid app, ad free of course, with the ability to make custom levels. The free version offers a ton of different levels and difficulties.
Ninjump
QR:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?...edium%3DPage%26utm_campaign%3DAndrolib%20Page
Ninjump has gotten a good amount of hype in the iphone world, but I never hear much about it in the android community. You tap the screen to make a little ninja leap left or right, (depending on which wall he is on) as he quickly moves higher up the wall. You dodge rooftops sticking our from the side, ninja stars, flying bluebirds, running foxes, and stick of dynamite. When you tap the screen to jump you also attack. If you attack 3 of the same enemies in a row, you get a bonus jump. Each bonus jump varies depending on the trio of enemies you attack. The game has a leader-board too which always makes things more interesting
Simonclone

How can anyone resist classic Simon?
Shoot U (lite)
QR:http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?...edium%3DPage%26utm_campaign%3DAndrolib%20Page
A great sandbox physics game. You shoot spiderman, zombies and pandas out of a cannon through various obstacles to make them hit the red star. The game has cool graphics that look like crayon drawing on parchment paper. Another great game to join the ranks of Crayon Physics
Snake
QR: http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?...edium%3DPage%26utm_campaign%3DAndrolib%20Page
The best clone of the classic game of snake that I've come across...and its free like everything else!

An amazing one stop app for all things emulator. It resembles the android market- in a very organized fashion it lets you download a plethora of great ROMs, and offers direct downloads to wonderful FREE emulators that work great. The onscreen virtual keypad is amazing. You can't beat playing Super Mario on your Android.
Thanks for the info!! I love ninjump! And I never heard of Emulator Rom's in the market so I am downloading it now! I have been wanting to play some old PSX games!
saweeet!

Thanks, I've been looking for some new stuff.
Sent from my Fascinate - DJ05/SuperClean/Adryn's 12/30
very little.
I was making some wallpapers from some pics that caught my eye and a lot of them happened to be from classic video games: Mario, Zelda, etc. I just got to thinking that while a lot of today's games are widely-played, they just don't have that lasting value that the games of the past had, the games that appealed to everyone.
I know there are a few like Little Big Planet and what-not that still do something for everyone, but it's titles like Dead Space and Mass Effect are what move units now. In the "What are you playing thread" Skyrim and BF3 are tops. Halo inspired some cool things like Red vs Blue, but are any of us going to look back a in years to come and really feel like any of today's games are anything more than hours of well-designed time killing? Even one of my favorites in Ninja Gaiden Sigma makes me wonder if I'll see it as great down the road. I don't think Ocarina of Time will ever be a let down, or Mario Kart, or the old Metroid games.
I know this is a little disjointed but I just wanted to get it out. What do you guys think?
I see a field of fps & mmorpg. Not any that draw you into them. None like the classics. You're right.

Bugaboo the flea really did it for me too. I lost many nights' sleep over that game.
Also, pretty much anything by Ultimate - Jet Pac, Trans Am, Cookie etc.. They were all classics.
Most games today get played till completed then put back in the box until they're sold a year later. I do revisit portal and the most recent Assassin's Creed that I have at the time. Some modern games still have plenty of staying power, but I don't know if they'll be remembered in 30 years.
Yeah...definitely true OP. It seems as technology gets better, we only get better with eye candy (with some exceptions of course) But now a days kids think a game is good because it looks good.
I mean, i get it. I get caught in the whole graphics as well, but the content needs to be there also.
That or maybe i'm just getting older and thinking back on simpler times just seems like it's more fun.

Precisely, I don't like playing online with a bunch of people, just give me a good game I play at my leisure and have fun.
Excitebike, R.C. Pro Am, Maniac Mansion. So simple yet they felt worth the time.
Contra III, Golden Eye, the good old days.
The best games are always going to be the ones you played when you were around 10.
Twenty years from now there will be a holographic thread about how awesome Cut the Rope was, and BF25 is nothing in comparison.
It's not age, it's content. Maybe the whole thing with the games that feel that way is that they "take you somewhere else." It's fun to play BF3, but when you play Mario 64, or the Final Fantasy series they are their own experiences. Maybe it's just that I feel like I get enough death and mayhem on the news and I feel better when playing games that are just games, nothing too heavy.

Dude, I remember some of the old 007 fps games and they had killing, but they were great because of the stories or multiplayer action, in your home.

I do have to say I think I will always remember the Metal Gear Solid series favorably.
missing the "epicness" in today`s games. baldur´s gate 1 & 2 for example was sooo awesome. with more than 120hrs of epic rpg experience (if u fance the genre of course), proper characters and brilliant dialogue wrapped in beautiful visual art. imho there are but a few games on the market nowadays to rival games from the 90´s, such as bg1&2, where more quality games have been produced.
just my 2 cents
Bomberman :3

What are some of the best Android games to use the power of the nexus? I mostly play computer games, right now my main game I play on my phone is Texas Hold 'Em.
I am also aware of N64 and Playstation emulators, will probably mess around with some games on those. But right now I feel like I'm missing a void. I have this power house phone and I only play Hearthstone and poker on it.
What can you recommend me? I mostly enjoy multiplayer games. I absolutely can't stand waiting games, like Clash of Clans or Boom Beach. Sorry for being so vague
Hey, if you're into arcade-type games and don't mind wasting some time away there is a cool pinball one called Zen Pinball HD; be forwarned it only comes with one table and the rest require a small sum to be spent. They just released a Portal (from Valve) based table which I'm addicted to at this time. This one is single player.
Otherwise, if you want multiplayer there is one called Taichi Panda which is multiplayer and has stuff going on at all times. They have just received an update which raised the level cap. If you decide to jump on this one, play on server US-S16 Gubbly and add me, my IGN is LiQuiDDiGitZ.
It depends what you like really.
Dead trigger 2 looks great with the graphics set all the way up, however I don't like the control system.
Some of my favourite games that look nice:
Warhammer 40,000 Space wolf (beta) - Geeky turn based strategy
Need for Speed Most wanted - Arcade racer
GT Racing 3 - Nearly simulation racer
Hitman Go - puzzle / micro strategy
Modern Combat 4 - FPS, much better control system than Dead trigger 2
Edge of Tomorrow - FPS based on the Movie
Sould Calibur - Sega Dreamcast "port" beat em up
Galaxy on Fire 2 HD - Space flight / trading / dog fighting
Limbo - 2d platform game
Frozen Synapse Prime - Sort of a turn based strategy
GTA San Andreas - Needs no introduction
IMHO Emulated games are always a let down. The controls work poorly on a touch screen and the graphics are never as good as native games. PSP games look OK but you're stuck with one joystick which is a pain in modern gaming.
6 best multiplayer android games 2016
1. Clash of Clans - is without doubt the most grossing game on every ones list. Not to forget, the game has already been awarded the best multiplayer game in 2013. This probably is one such game which shall never go out of trend. Here, basically what you do is protect your village from the enemy.
2. 8 Ball Pool - This one is for all the peace loving people out there. Generally people associate multiplayer games on android with fighting and war; but this is one of the best games to keep you busy and well entertained. If you like billiards and you can play it well on your android phones, then this is it for you.
3. Ice Age Village - Now that is something, isn’t it? All you do is unlock levels by building up a new habitat for all the characters from the movie. Though there isn’t much to do (unlike COC, which needs you to come back every once in a while), but it surely is a great way to pass your leisure time.
While you visit the villages created by your friends, you also get additional benefits and points. What makes this game stand out is the fact that it needs nothing much to be done; just work on it when you feel like doing nothing and you have your way out!
4. Asphalt 8: Airborne - is a one of the best racing multiplayer game on Android. A game from Gameloft needs no definition, and this is asphalt we are talking about. This is one of the most trending game from the entire series of Asphalt and I am sure it has surely been the all time favorite of any of you!
5. Modern Combat 5: Blackout - This one is probably the ideal replacement for Call of Duty on your android phones. This is a great multiplayer game on your android devices. Team up with your other friends on the game and fight the enemy. The leader boards allow you to keep a track of how fairly you have performed; all you need to do here is make use of the right weapon, right tactic, at the right time.
6. Words With Friends - The best multiplayer game to always keep up with the times when you are bored. This game allows you to chat with friends, challenge people who you think you can out do and of course better your vocabulary. Play it with the best possible person who matches your level and see if you can still be the winner.
