Top 5 Touch HD Games

Surely I’m not the only one who has been having some problems finding fun games for a Windows Mobile device. While Android and iPhone OS both have had their app-stores up and running for some time now, there is no such thing for Windows Mobile as of yet. As I have been using the HTC Touch HD which runs on the WVGA (800×480) resolution for some time now, I thought I’d share my findings with you today in this article.

1. Tiki Towers

tiki-towersTiki Towers is a game in the style of World Of Goo. If you don’t know this game check out this video on YouTube. The point of Tiki Towers is to guide monkeys over obstacles while retrieving bananas, which seems like something a monkey would want to be doing. So far for the realism in the game. The game works very smooth on a lot of different Windows Mobile smartphones I gave it a test drive on.  The best think about it is that it actually scales your viewing size depending on the resolution your phone is running on. In this case it would be 800×480(WVGA) as this is the size of the Touch HD. You have a great oversight of the monkeys playground. The game is fun and can be a challenge, the physics  engine used in the game appears to work pretty well and you can solve the levels in a lot of different ways.

2. Resco Brain Games

braingames2009_01Reso Brain Games is a no-brainer(hilarious pun intended) on this Top 5 Windows Mobile WVGA game list. Not only are these type of game getting increasingly popular with the casual and mainstream gamers, but the game runs very smooth, is fun and addicting.

3. Xtract

Xtract racing was made for the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1, but the game also runs on the Touch HD in full WVGA resolution. The best thing about this game is that it actually is completely 3D accelerated by the Touch HD graphic chip. Something that has been lacking in a lot of games because of the lacking 3D drivers for the chipset used in this HTC device. You can find the game on FreewarePOcketPC.com.

4. PDA Poker Art – Texas Hold’em Poker for Windows Mobile

PDA Poker ArtA brand new Poker game for Windows Mobile that runs on WVGA resolutions, what else can you wish for? PDA Poker Art is has rich bright graphics, works well, has fitting sound effects and is just general fun. That is if you enjoy a card game now and then. The game allows for different skill levels and seemingly dynamic AI acting/bluffing and blind-stealing.

5. Resco Bubbles

Resco BubblesResco bubbles, a game very suitable for the Touch HD big WVGA screen and uses the motion sensor to control a little ball. With the ball you break bubbles, dodge obstacles and pickup power-ups. It’s a great show stealer and a very easy entry level, when you gain access to the higher tier of levels they can be very frustrating (why must games always have an ice-level?). Overall it’s allot of fun and great value for your money. With 2 mentions in this top five Resco is doing quite well. Keep it up guys.
