Two great WVGA games for Windows Mobile that you should keep your eye on

These days Windows Mobile gaming is getting better and better. Game developers have started picking up the pace and making mobile WVGA games that actually have been using some of the newer devices hardware acceleration capabilities like OpenGL ES. Color Stone Ltd has done such a thing and made two games for Windows Mobile that look, play and just seem polished overall. The two games were played on a Touch HD and a Touch Pro 2, these devices use basically the same hardware like many of the other Windows Mobile WVGA phones out there and should work on any of them (if your chip supports OpenGL ES it should work).

Flight Commander
In flight commander you get control of the air space around an airfield. You have to make sure that the planes land and don’t crash. I’m sure some of you recognize this from the popular iPhone game called Flight Control. The game is basically a rip of that game, though it does not really matter a fun game is a fun game. And Windows Mobile could use some more as a platform, especial for WVGA devices. There are different types of planes that you have to land on the different air strips. The game is challenging fun and looks great. The only downside is that there isn’t a demo available, I’m sure a lot of you would like to try it before you buy it, although if you don’t like the game you can get a refund as far as I know. You can find Flight Commander here

Tower Defense
Nearly as long as there are games there have been tower defense games. And this game really is the best of them all, well for the Windows Mobile platform at least. The game has pretty deep strategy as you can choose from 6 different towers to defend your base with, additionally you can upgrade each tower up to 3 times. Choose wisely what towers you put down it can change the course of battle greatly. Every battle you do is different and thus the game has a high replay value overall. The graphics look lush and gritty at the same time and as for a WVGA Games It feels great to play it on this resolution. Again, like Flight Control there does not seem to be a demo version available. If anyone finds one please do let us know and they will be linked on this page. For now if you are interested in the game you can find Tower Defense here together with some more screenshots. Enjoy the gaming!
