Games that work on the HTC Advantage

I'm not a big gamer but I do like to play the occasional game while waiting in line or when I'm just bored. I'll start off this list with one of my all-time favorite time killers ICBM - v1.3. This game is completly stylus controlled and while easy at first gets harder as you advance through the levels. Although this game was written for the original Pocket PC operating system it continues to work fine on all versions of Windows Mobile. As an added plus it's free and works in either landscape or portrait mode.

Great thread...looks like Astraware's Sudoku, Solitaire, Tradewinds2 ,and Hidden Expedition: Titanic are WM6 ...but many of the others Zunma, Bejeweled2, Cubis, Chuzzle, Farkle.....etc...are listed as WM5....

sigh.... many of the games I have may not like WM6 :(

Farkle for WM5 by Smart Box Design works but looks best in Portrait mode. The game does work in Landscape mode but it only fills up about two-thirds of the screen leaving the rest blank. Steady Stan (a computer assigned player) kicked my butt in the first game. :)

SPB Arkball II works well but only in Portrait mode, I couldn't find any Landscape option. :( On the plus side when you quit a game the Advantage returns to whichever screen orientation you had it in before you started the game. Be sure you download the VGA version for use on your Advantage.

This game is not for a quick 5 minute romp as the game play and graphics make it highly addictive if you're into Breakout type games like I am.
