Métro 5.7.1 – Metro guide featuring over 300 cities from all over the world

October 12th, 2008

Pocket PC users are often on the move and this explains the large number of applications geared towards helping travellers wherever they go. One of the most successful travel programs available for handheld computers is this free guide to the subway systems in over 300 cities worldwide.

Métro has a very basic interface which can be a little tricky to read if you haven’t taken a look at the user guide. Once used to the controls, though, the average user will have no further trouble with this program. Use it to plan journeys, guide you between subway and railway stations, or to help you find places of interest such as museums or government buildings.

For such a small application, it holds a surprising amount of details and with frequent updates, you don’t need to worry about out-of-date information.

Brain Games 2.10 – Train your brain on your Pocket PC

October 12th, 2008

Brain training games are all the rage these days, and Resco Brain Games brings an accomplished take on the format to Windows Mobile devices.

Brain Games is designed to help you improve your mental capabilities by following a course of different tests and puzzles. There are 36 in all, which test challenge your skills in mathematics, memory and analysis. Each of the 36 brain games are broken down into ten separate tests of rising difficulty, and you can’t progress to the next difficulty level until you’ve finished the previous test.

You’re awarded stars out of five depending on how many questions you get right and how quickly you finish the brain games. A glamorous teacher is on-hand to award you your points, or simply to give you instructions on what to do.

The control system is Resco Brain Games has been very well designed and makes for intuitive use via the direction pad or touchscreen. The layout of the answer buttons means you have no excuse for being slow to answer, as they’re incredibly simple to access.

There’s no doubt that the tests in Brain Games are great for boosting your brain power, and as I could clearly see from the comprehensive statistics section, I found myself steadily improving over time. My only slight qualm would be that the games aren’t diverse enough. Perhaps some word puzzles or reflex-testing games would’ve made Brain Games a more well-rounded app.

Nevertheless, Resco Brain Games is without doubt one of the best Windows Mobile brain trainers around.

PocketGravity 0.02 – Defy gravity with this amusing game

October 12th, 2008

I’m a big fan of gravity, and I reckon without it the World would be a much worse place (although obviously a much quieter one). So I thought I’d test out this Pocket PC game, which simulates the force of gravity in an entertaining way.

The basic premise is to create shapes and objects on screen that then bounce and float around under the influence of gravity. There are a number of drawing tools housed in the toolbar at the bottom of the screen. It takes a little while to get to figure out what each of them do, but once you do, you’ll find there’s lots you can do with them. You can create squares and rectangles, draw circles and lines, and stick them all together using the pin tool.

Once you’ve designed your shape/object/drawing you simply hit play and watch gravity take hold. The images will fall slowly then bounce (if they’re the right size) and float around the screen. You can easily pause the action and add more shapes, as well as going back and forth through the stages of your design.

It’s really great fun to play around with and the animation is simply mesmeric at times, making for a relaxing way to pass some time. It would’ve been nice to see some effects and different colours thrown in even though without this, there’s still enough scope to create a diverse range of objects.

Although ultimately useless, PocketGravity offers an enjoyable way to play around with the force that keeps our feet on the ground.

EdgeWay Turbo 21 1.0 – Play Blackjack against the clock

October 12th, 2008

Reckon your a bit of a card shark? If so, you may want to test how good you really are by installing EdgeWay Turbo 21.

This Windows Mobile game sees you play Blackjack against the clock, charging you with the task of getting as many ’21s’ as you can within a given time limit. You are given four columns in which you can build your stacks of cards up to 21. Cards are drawn from the pack and then you simply tap on a column or use the directional buttons to select a stack.

Points in EdgeWay Turbo 21 are awarded for making Blackjack (a picture card and an Ace), a Trik5 (21 with 5 cards), or 21 in any other way. Points are deducted for every time you pass or card, or if you go bust. To progress to the next level you need to reach the points target within the given time.

EdgeWay Turbo 21 may not score highly for its presentation but it’s certainly an addictive and challenging game that will have you coming back time and again to try and reach the next stage. Aside from a special higher-or-lower bonus round though, there isn’t much variety to EdgeWay Turbo 21 and the lack of any game options or multiplayer mode means that it soon becomes repetitive.

Nevertheless, Edgeway Turbo 21 does provide an interesting twist on the Blackjack game format.
