Joker's Quest

Take one part Boulder Dash, one part some other games that will be on the tip of your tongue as you play, throw them all in a pot, stir and simmer. That's the recipe for creating Joker's Quest, a fun and addictive new game from PDAMill.  In this review, Eric Pankoke dons his wetsuit and heads off in search of the denizens of the deep.

Broken Sword

What do an American tourist, a mysterious French photojournalist, a psychic detective and a clown with accordion bombs have in common? They are all just the tip of the iceberg in the delightfully twisted plot that comprises Broken Sword for the Pocket PC. While the game is not new to the world, it's certainly a breath of fresh air in the Pocket PC market. Adventure gamers, get ready to point and click!

Spb AirIslands

A great series of earthquakes ravaged your world and ripped it apart into many tiny islands. Now you must do your part as ruler of one of those islands to help restore your world to its former glory. Air Islands might be described as “Sim City Lite” with resource gathering, but the method in which you collect your building materials in unlike any PocketPC game you've played before. Is Air Islands worth digging an anchor into, or should you just let it float on by? Read on to find out…

Sky Force: Reloaded

I am in the somewhat unique position among mobile gamers in that I never played the original Sky Force on the Pocket PC. “What's so special about it?”, I thought – you fly, you shoot. What then, would I make of Sky Force: Reloaded, the sequel to Sky Force featuring “more levels, more music and more action”?

Cavemen

[Editor's note: I remember reviewing Cavemen and was really quite taken with the game, especially considering that it was a two-man creation.  Almost uniquely in software development, the authors published a detailed evaluation of their methodology.  This makes a fascinating read, and I found it particularly valuable.]

Lemmings. Its reputation is legendary, and I doubt you'll come across anyone who's unfamiliar with the game. It's a tough act to follow, but that's exactly what Lightworks Games has set out to do with Cavemen. Lightworks Games is a small two-man company, and this is their first foray into the Pocket PC gaming scene.
