Forget about snake and bowling, today there are literally thousands of free mobile games that can be downloaded to a cell phone of PDA in a few seconds. Some of them are quite sophisticated. The great thing about them is that you can take them anywhere.
Take Brothers in Arms 3: Hell's Highway for example. The Brothers in Arms series is a sequential action scenario game featuring detailed combat operations and requiring strategic planning. You can download the game for free from a number of websites. While it takes some getting used to, you will like the sophistication. As we said, this is no "snake game."
Just a few years ago, manufacturers added games to phones almost as an afterthought. They had no idea how much people like to play great games while on the move. Let's face it -- in today's world we have a lot of down time. Waiting for trains, buses, and meetings to start, we need distractions that we can look forward to. The Brothers in Arms series is great for this.
Hell's Highway starts where the earlier games left off. You are an army commander leading an elite unit deep inside enemy territory. You get points for completing missions without getting killed. When you complete a mission, you advance to the next level. If you have to go while in the middle of a scenario, you can indefinitely pause the game and pick it up next time you have time.
Hell's Highway really is an entertaining way to -- pardon the expression -- kill some time. You need to read through the rules when you start, but after that its pretty much self explanatory. When you do really well, the game will remember your high score so that every time you play, you are challenged.
