Fancy yourself as a bit of a card shark but too frightened to bet with real money? Well Aces Blackjack is as near as you can get to the real thing without losing your house. There are three main games at the green table - Classic Blackjack, Aces Time Crunch against the clock and Aces Hand Challenge to grab as much cash as you can from limited hands.

The dealer is pretty sharp himself and there's no looking in his eyes or calling his bluff, so it's a little tricky. For those in need of some help there's a great strategy card giving advice on when to bet and when to stand. If you're not up-to-speed with the game of Blackjack there are clear instructions.

However, the demo is limited and requires restarting after every game.

Aces Blackjack features:

Play up to 10 decks at a time.
Aces Time Crunch: High score race against the clock!
Aces Hand Challenge: Every play counts against a set number of hands.
Blackjack reference card.
Great sound effects with on/off option and volume control.
Game and career statistics.
4 game speeds.
Set table limits.
Split up to 3 hands.
Double Down option.
Dealer Insurance option.
Automatic betting amounts.
Automatic save.

It seems that any magazine you pick up these days will have half a dozen personality tests in it. Wouldn't it be good if instead of having to buy all these magazines to test different aspects of your personality you could do them all in one hit?

Well, that's basically what Personality Pyschology Pro offers. The application is divided into a series of tests based around five different areas of personality, namely: Introversion/Extraversion, Emotional Stability, Mastery/Sympathy, Sexuality, and Social/Political Attitudes. Each of these areas is broken down into a series of tests covering different the different aspects that affect that personality trait. So, for instance, Introversion/Extraversion is divided into tests for Activity, Sociability, Risk-Taking, Impulsiveness, Expressiveness, Reflectiveness and Responsibility.

Before you start you need to create a new profile for yourself by entering your name and date of birth (although this doesn't seem to have any bearing on the results). You can then progress through each test, which normally contain about 30 questions each. As with most personality tests, a statement is displayed and you must click Yes, No, or Maybe depending on whether it is true of you or not. One of the things I liked about these tests is that you can jump backwards and forwards through them and change your answers once you've had time to really reflect on them.

Once you've completed a test, you'll be shown a chart outlining the degree to which you exhibit a particular personality trait, which also displays the 'normal' level. More detailed analysis of what your results actually mean is also available from this menu.

This is a very comprehensive personality testing solution which analyses virtually every area of the way you are. The only problem is, it will take you an age to complete all the tests and it can become a little monotonous after a while.

Nevertheless, if you want a complete tool for measuring your personality, Personality Psychology Pro certainly beats thumbing through endless magazine pages.

If you're a big pinball fan but can't be bothered to drag yourself down to the local arcade, it might be worth installing Pinball Evolution on your Pocket PC.

Pinball Evolution is a fab looking pinball sim for your mobile, which plays almost like the real thing. The game includes three different table layouts - a ship, a factory and, my personal favorite, a motocross course. Each is lovingly rendered in great detail with superb sound effects and background noises.

If you're into pinball in a big way then you'll be pleased to hear that Pinball Evolution includes multi-flippers and multi-ball support, along with power-ups such as multipliers, bumper attacks and points busters. There's even a multi-directional table-tilting feature built into the game.

Pinball Evolution is fairly customizable too - you can tweak the graphics and sound settings, as well as defining your own control keys.

It's great fun to play and looks great, I just wish Pinball Evolution had a few more table designs.

They say you should never play with your food, but in the case of Eggstreme - Yolks Revenge I guess you could make an exception.

The game sees you try to score points by matching up Easter and egg-themed images in order to create rows or columns of two or more. Among these cute little pictures are rabbits, chicks, flowers, and, of course, eggs.

Eggstreme - Yolks Revenge is based around a very simple concept and is equally simple to control using your keypad. Like most games of its nature, it's highly addictive and makes for an amusing diversion for a while.

Unfortunately, Eggstreme - Yolks Revenge simply doesn't have enough depth. The graphics are rather bland and don't vary much, and there are no extra difficulty levels or different game modes to keep the thrill of playing alive for too long.

It's certainly worth having a crack at it, but ultimately, Eggstreme - Yolks Revenge isn't particularly egg-citing. Sorry.

ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the game, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!

ScummVM lets you run these adventures: Adventure Soft's Simon the Sorcerer 1 and 2; Revolution's Beneath A Steel Sky, Broken Sword 1 and Broken Sword 2; Flight of the Amazon Queen; and games based on LucasArts' SCUMM (Script Creation Utility for Maniac Mansion) system. SCUMM is used for many games, including Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Sam and Max and more.

Bowling is great fun for all the family but when you can't get to a lane you don't have to miss out on the action, thanks to Ultimate Bowling Fighter.

Bizarrely, this Ultimate Bowling Fighter adopts a kind-of Street Fighter style approach to the sport. You choose from four characters from around the World and must travel the globe to battle it out against the others to be crowned kingpin.

The graphics in Ultimate Bowling Fighter are colorful and well drawn, although if you're looking for a realistic bowling sim you'll probably get annoyed by the silly animations and wacky sound effects.

Playing Ultimate Bowling Fighter is a breeze and is done using a gauge to control direction and power. With three game modes to choose from (Solo, Tournament and Multiplayer) Ultimate Bowling Fighter will have you gripped for quite some time.

As far as mobile arcade bowling sims go, Ultimate Bowling Fighter is probably the best you'll find.

If you like Poker but can't quite pull the right face at the right moment perhaps you should be looking for a similar yet slightly simpler card game. And that card game could be Croker. Instead of numbers in Croker you play with pictures - frogs, pigs, dice and baskets of fruit. It's the way the French play, apparently.

As with Poker the aim of the game is to make the best possible hand from five cards and like Poker the possible combinations include pairs, three of a kind, a full house or four of a kind. Each time the cards are played a round of betting occurs until players are ready to show all their cards and see who's won.

The animated cards are very colourful and you get to play computer opponents but there are only two levels of difficulty easy and hard which is a bit annoying.

If you like Poker you'll have fun with Croker, and if you like cards games with pigs and lightbulbs you'll probably really enjoy it too.

If you're a fan of puzzle games and are bored of the same old formats then Hexxagon Labs may make for a refreshing change.

Kind-of an Othello with hexagons, Hexxagon Labs sees you tackle a series of mind-boggling quests over a series of complex levels. The aim of the game is to fill as many of the spaces on the board as possible by moving around strategically and capturing enemy pieces.

It's pretty straightforward to get a grasp of the rules of Hexxagon Labs if you've played Othello before, but if you haven't then there are a few tutorial levels to help you on your way. It's all great fun, and the inclusion of scientific facts along the way helps add to the enjoyment factor.

Hexxagon Labs is well presented - the graphics are nice and colorful and the sounds are chirpy if not a little annoying. The only real problem with the game is that there just aren't enough levels, and the control system is slightly fiddly.

On the whole though, Hexxagon Labs provides a fun way to kill some time.

There are dozens of Tetris clones available for mobile devices, but Big Box of Blox is certainly not one of the more conventional ones.

The object of Big Box of Blox is fairly standard - arrange the three-block-high stacks as the fall to match blocks in groups of three or more, vertically or horizontally to eliminate them. The difference to your run-of-the-mill Tetris game though lies in the way Big Box of Blox is packaged, which I would simply describe as "surreal".

The graphics in Big Box of Blox are dark, mysterious and downright bizarre. Over the course of the five different game modes, the styling of the levels varies from Hells Angel, through alien, to futuristic. Couple this with a spooky ambient soundtrack and Big Box of Blox represents one of the most sinister puzzle experiences you'll ever download.

A game of this nature is always going to be addictive and fun to play, and Big Box of Blox proves no different. It avoids being repetitive by presenting different game modes that feature different block attributes. One level contains bomb blocks that blast surrounding blocks away when joined together, another features a slot-machine style combo where an event happens for better or worse depending on the spin of a wheel, and a third sees you try to blocks that spring up like mushrooms as you play. You can adjust the difficulty of the gameplay within Big Box of Blox very precisely through a slider on the main menu.

Big Box of Blox is let down somewhat by the design of the blocks themselves. Because many of the pieces are very dark in color, they are sometimes hard to spot against the black backgrounds of the levels, and I came away from the game with a touch of eye strain.

But if you're looking for something different to the usual Tetris-style games, Big Box of Blox delivers an experience you won't find anywhere else.

Being a big fan of the Wallace and Gromit series of films, I've always dreamed of living in a world made of clay. Now my dreams have been realized thanks to Platypus.

You assume the role of an orange flying craft that must save the country of Mungola by blasting the evil enemy invaders out of the sky. Essentially, it's a side-scrolling shooter but with one difference - everything is made from clay.

The graphics in Platypus are like none you'll have seen before. Because all of the elements were actually made from clay and digital captured, it makes for some truly stunning viewing. The animation is pretty slick too, and the splatting explosion effects are some of the best I've seen anywhere. The high-octane sound effects are impressive too and really help to set your pulse racing.

While the visuals in Platypus are innovative and unique, unfortunately the gameplay is much the same as your average shooter, and after a while the process of blasting everything that slides across the screen becomes somewhat mundane. There is some stuff to collect and a few power-ups to improve your ship, which adds a little more life to this game.

In terms of options, you can adjust the sound and music volume, rotate the screen, and view high scores, but there's no facility for setting your own game controls.

You'll be blown away by the graphics but once the novelty of this has worn off you'll realize that Platypus plays like any other run-of-the-mill arcade shooter.

The early nineties were something of a boom-time for platform games. Titles like Wonderboy, Alex Kidd and Nicky Boom all featured heroic boys on a quest to save their world.

Nicky Boom, a popular hit on the Amiga back in 1993, has now been ported to mobile devices, and recreates the magic of the original very well. The outline of the story is that Nicky's grandfather has been captured by the evil witch Zoldrane, who wants to steal his secrets. Nicky Boom must get to his granddad by traversing a series of perilous levels, conquering all the various creatures that Zoldrane has turned into her dastardly army.

Nicky Boom proves to be a really fun platform romp that brings the memories of those childhood days spent smashing snails and beating up beetles flooding back. Just like the original, the mobile version of Nicky Boom offers huge worlds to explore, secret areas to unlock, and power-ups and weapons to collect along the way.

The graphics in Nicky Boom are pretty good, although I was a bit disappointed by the rendering of the main character. Due to the way the sprite is drawn he's often difficult to spot against red or orange backgrounds, which can become annoying. The backgrounds are nice though and there's a diverse array of imaginative baddies to battle along the way.

There's plenty of fun to be had with Nicky Boom, and it's pretty in-depth for a mobile title.

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. 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 Smartphone brain trainers around.

I played paintball once and nearly lost a thumb so, for me, a version where it's impossible to get hurt is something I'd love to see. Unfortunately Crazysoft Paintball isn't an exact copy of the barbaric shooting-people-in-a-field game, but it does involve paint. And balls.

The goal of this puzzle game is to join three or more balls of the same colour and ensure they are next to a pipe. Once in place, you select them then splat them with paint using the action key. The balls will then change colour and get sucked into the pipe, leaving more space on the board for you to make your next batch.

It's an interesting twist on an over-done gaming concept, and as you master the combos and pump up the points, it becomes more and more addictive. What's more, the longevity of the game is extended by the inclusion of five different game modes.

Besides the normal challenge, you also get a Hard mode, where the paint reserve dips very quickly; Panic mode, where you have 100 seconds to score as many points as you can; Heat mode, where ball groups are taken only when they are next to a 'hot' (red) pipe; and the mind-boggling Chroma mode, where you have to use different colour combinations rather than balls of the same colour.

With the addition of multi-player mode via Bluetooth, Crazysoft Paintball will have you swapping paint for points for quite some time.

Pool is one of those games that you think you're going to be really good at until you step up to the table and realize that it's actually much tougher than it looks.

Vegas Pool Sharks gives you the chance to hone your skills in the hustlers' playground that is Las Vegas. You'll get a chance to fleece money from some of the most canny players in the casino. Alternatively you might lose your house.

The game sees you compete against four different computer opponents who vary in their level of skill. I would've liked to have seen a few more characters just to add a bit more variety, but there are three different game modes to help you mix things up a bit.

Vegas Pool Sharks boasts some surprisingly accurate ball physics making it a fairly realistic pool simulation for a mobile device. The 3D views are great and you can zoom in and out or tilt the angle of your cue fairly smoothly. Thanks to some helpful aiming hints it should be quite easy for you to get to grips with the game.

Although it lacks the all-important two player mode, Vegas Pool Sharks is a fairly accurate pool simulation that will keep you amused for some time.
