Metal ball is a fun mobile game that you can download for free and play wherever you want. All you need is a cell phone with gaming option, PDA, or any other type of hand-held that supports gaming. The game combines, graphics, music, and strategy to provide an addictive form of entertainment.
There are many, many levels. On the first level, all you need to do is move a little, metal ball with the arrow keys, along a track that is both flat and straight. Level one is very easy and in no way prepares you for what is to come. Level two throws a few variations in, the track goes around a few corners, but still nothing fancy. You can handle it.
The real fun stuff comes about around level five. By this time you are going along a track that has ramps going up and down, sudden changes of direction, and places where the track is hardly wider than the ball. If you miss the edge, you fall into the abyss. You will then be restarted from the same track, just further back.
The soundtrack of the game is one of those post modern keyboard pieces that are for some reason soothing to the ear. It is much better than most of the grinding synthesized generated stuff that normally pulses throughout games like these. The designers actually found a piece of music that complements rather than detracts from the game play.
A good strategy is to always try and stay in the center of the track. You give yourself a few precious seconds that way when you see an obstacle is approaching. Play with two fingers and always angle the direction of the ball. Pressing up and left for example, sends the ball to the Northwest. The more you play, the more you will get the hang of it.

Find Your Hero in Heroes: The Official Mobile Game
Feel what it is like to be a real hero
Have you ever wanted to be a hero? Have you ever dreamed about living in a fantasy type world where it is you who is the real hero who saves the day? Perhaps that is why you love the series Heroes. If that is the case, then you will likewise love the mobile phone game Heroes. Because Heroes brings all your fantasies almost into reality as you start to become a part of this cool, super-fantastic world. As well, you also get to relive the show that you have probably been enjoying for a while. Imagine: your favorite show, through your mobile phone and you get to actually be a real part of it. What could be better?
Get even more from this game than from the show
In addition, playing Heroes: the Official Mobile Phone Game gives you more information about the plot of the show. You can play the game throughout America, well, in 4 different places at least, from the streets of New York City, Las Vegas, the future of New York City and the museum. You get to do all this through realistic settings on location that transport you to these places, again immersing you in a wonderful world of fantasy.
Which character do you want to be?
You even get to choose your own heroic character. Who have you always secretly fantasized about being? Is it Hiro, Peter or Niki? You can play one or all of them. And you get to enjoy their individual powers too. All those super hero powers you wanted to have while watching the show, well, in Heroes: the Official Mobile Game, you actually get to live them out. That is what I like doing. I am making my way home after a long day at the office, waiting for the bus and rather than just engage in such mundane activities, I can be a hero and enjoy all those super cool powers. Sometimes I just wish I had enough powers to push my way on to my bus in rush hour! But here I get to do whatever I want and for once in my day become very much less ordinary than the rest of my life. Just think, maybe one day I will be able to save the world. But if that does not happen then in the meantime I can pretend to save the world via this cool mobile phone game.

Slots Galore and Cash Too
Slots tournaments are a great way to get to play lots of games for a very small investment. Lucky players will still walk away with a bundle while the rest will have spent only a very minor investment for their participation. Slots tournaments as they are held by the Jackpot Factory's World Series of Slots are even better and more fun. Here, the initial participation in the tryouts is absolutely free thus, the initial investment in absolutely nil!
Buying in to the tournament after tryouts is also possible and not very expensive. Buying in to one of the weekend tournaments (with a big jackpot of 10,000$ and a total of 25,000$ in cash prizes!) costs just 25$. Buying in to the big contests (1st of October and 1st of November with jackpots of 50,000$ and 100,000$ respectively) costs only 50$! This is the biggest event of its kind yet and anyone who's anyone will be participating!

Get into Fantasy with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Go into a world of magic with this cool mobile phone game
If you like magic and you love Harry Potter (who doesn't?) then you will have such fun with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. This mobile phone game features magic, wizards, action, and battles all at the same time. In this game, Harry Potter meets up with some students in an attempt to train them in defence against the dark arts. It is you, the player, who has to fight the Death Eaters in this game.
Enjoy increasingly hard levels for a greater challenge
If you like a challenge, then Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix with its 7 levels will probably appeal. Also, for anyone who is Potter mad (as I am), this is the most perfect way to satisfy that craving. You really get in to the whole spirit of Harry Potter and all the films and you actually feel like (almost) that you are a part of that whole world. The graphics are a lot of fun and they are probably what makes the game so exciting and such a great way for Potter fans to have fun on their mobile phones while reminiscing about those great movies and books.
Enjoy Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix mobile phone game time and again
What really appeals to me about Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is that no matter how many times I play it, there is something new in the game. This is quite unlike a lot of other mobile phone games I have played in the past. But because there is so much going on with this game (pretty much like the books and movies I guess), you always want to come back for more (which is probably why the books and movies were such a success). So as well as re-enjoying the whole Harry Potter series, your gaming skills are tested and challenged too.

MoThello fun for Mobile Phones
Get Better at Othello with MoThello!
Having never played traditional Othello before, I was not initially too excited to start playing MoThello (the mobile phone version of Othello). But my friend at work told me the game was a riot, she loved it and she herself had never gotten into Othello either. "Mobile phones are changing everything," she said. "Even if you never liked a game in its real form, you will love it in its mobile form, especially MoThello." So I decided to give it a go. The rules are the same with MoThello and Othello, but the graphics, sounds and speeds, make the game so much more exciting and faster.
How to Play MoThello
What you have to do is beat the other player by having more of your discs on the board than them. There are two colors (and thus two players): black and white. The person with the black discs moves first. Each player gets a turn when they have to try and flip at least one opposing disc but if this cannot be achieved, then they cannot make a move and their opponent gets another turn. Sometimes though, a player can do really well and flip more than one disc at a time, in any direction (vertically, diagonally or horizontally). When both players get to the point where they are unable to move, the game comes to an end and the player with the most discs on the board wins.
Win MoThello With Fun
I found that initially I was doing pretty badly with MoThello. I guess it was because it reminded me of how bad I used to be at board games and how I had often tried to avoid them. But once I got over that initial attitude and started playing MoThello with an attitude of fun and relaxation, I found that I was able to do pretty well. It took time and it took patience (i.e., the more I played the better I did), but I soon realized that the more I relaxed, the better off I was. Now I play MoThello whenever I have a few minutes at the end of a work day or while traveling to avoid those boring business calls I so often need to take on my mobile phone. MoThello is far more exciting than using my mobile phone to chat!

Develop Strategy to Get 4 In a Row
Are You Better On the Mobile Than On Land?
That is the 64 million dollar question really isn't it? If you ever played a game on a board, or the real (as opposed to virtual) version of the game, were you any good at it? Do you think that playing the same game on a mobile phone will improve your chances of winning or your skill set? Well with 4-In-a-Row I wouldn't know since I had always been really good at Connect 4 when I used to play it against my brother. And I wasn't even sure why. It was not like I was really old enough or intelligent enough to have been able to develop a strategy for play. But somehow I just had the knack. So when I discovered that 4-In-a-Row was available for downloading to my mobile phone, I was pretty excited.
How to Play 4-In-a-Row
There are two players in 4-In-a-Row. Players are presented with a grid with 7 holes across and 6 holes down. Each player has a different color round piece with which to form four in a row (either diagonal, horizontal or vertical). In this version the colors are purple and yellow. While you are trying to form your own 4-In-a-Row, you are simultaneously trying to make sure that your opponent does not form his 4-In-a-Row. If he does, you are automatically out and he has won the game. So the strategy of 4-In-a-Row is very much dual based - look at your opponent and look at yourself as well at the same time. Thus thinking ahead before each move is advisable. If you just throw your piece in, trying to get 4-In-a-Row, you may inadvertently make a move that helps your opponent and thus you will lose!
