Snake
“Snake” is one of the first games ever made for cell phones. Use your BlackBerry keys to control the snake’s direction, guide it toward point pickups and help it avoid eating itself. Your snake is small in the beginning. Catch coins, which turn into points, to make your snake bigger. As your snake grows longer, it gets harder to maneuver. This game consists of 32 different rounds to complete, four different worlds and four different bosses to kill. Avoid letting the snake run into itself or go out of the screen; either will end the game. Licensed by Applicod, “Snake” is available for download for $0.99 as of 2010; free downloads of “Snake” are sometimes available.
Tetris
In “Tetris,” the challenge is to stack blocks and score as many complete lines as you can. You need to position various block shapes at increasing speeds as they come down your board. Clear your board as fast as you can to accommodate incoming blocks. In “Ultra” mode, you will race against a two-minute clock to clear forty lines as quickly as you can. Developed by Electronics Arts, you can download Tetris free for $4.99 as of 2010; free downloads are sometimes available.
