In the new era with the HandEra
Screen
Reviews Handera 330 on foreign Web sites begin with a story about the screen. Everyone decides for itself whether it is a major advantage, but one thing is certain: the screen is really wonderful. 16 shades of gray, QVGA resolution of 240x320, non-inverted type of lighting standard Casio Illuminator - those dry characteristics do not pass that enthusiasm, which he calls those who saw him in action. Just press the power button and run any program (preferably one of the built-in, to feel the difference) - and a clean, sharp image leaves no doubt. The first word that they can say afterwards: "I want!". Of course, his role and well-chosen fonts (there are 8 pieces for all tastes), and "virtual" graffiti area, but all the same screen, excuse the pun, striking first. Perhaps the black-and-white screen is not the best solution for gaming enthusiasts, but the text and fine graphic details look great, even slanted lines at HandEra "obtained" no effect "ladder".Game soft parade: Do you want merrymaking? They have me!
Today on the eve of weekends HPCru - the prime minister. We are pleased to introduce you to the section "Playing the soft parade" from our new author - Gotan'a. This will be a weekly review of the most interesting game-new products for PDAs that run Palm OS and Pocket PC, our little gift for fans of mobile entertainment. Thus, the venue - Friday, the day section "Articles, reviews." Meet! They have nowhere to play. So they climb, which is not needed. (Cartoon "Cheburashka and Crocodile Gena")
In one of the articles devoted to games, I read an interesting idea that games are a form of alternative communication. It's a language understood by all, regardless of country, religion and cultural traditions. Form of transfer of ideas, images and emotions, the possibility of implementing the most fantastic worlds and showcase their skills. In an effort to communicate humanity conquers all new and new frontiers. Playing with stones, wooden game boards, game on paper, privnosyaschie share of adventure in a continuous series of school everyday. Then there are computers and the impact of language games on the mass consciousness impresses with its wonderful possibilities - are becoming commonplace zasteklenevshie eyes aimed at a monitor, a complete lack of response to external stimuli in the form of friends and members of the household, as well as the rate of finger movement, which denies all theses physiologists to speed nerve impulses. Then came on the market consoles and console - a gaming platform. Finally, the game gained our freedom. This is not necessarily receive their portion of emotions, ideas and images at the stretched cord. You can play anywhere, in anything - the game appear on mobile devices - smartphones and PDAs. This means the color, impressive sound effects and ease of operation - the joystick and stylus. More and more large companies producing games are turning their attention to mobile platforms - with each passing day it becomes richer and more diverse language games for the lucky owners of PDAs and smartphones. Here and magic, and role-playing games, shooters and rpg, as well as multi-level gaming systems, requiring a preliminary study of instruction to them. So, moving the glasses on his nose, let's colleagues, what is new is happening in the world of language games. All of the following titles you can download our "Programs".
Game designed to trifles - so that the lock in the game, you will need to pick up one of many tools and insert it into the keyhole, also need considerable skill and dexterity in order to produce the desired alchemical mix of possible components. Details so many that need to read the manual - in the game you will not find tips. Despite the eternal night in the castle, all the elements are easily legible and easily visible. The interface itself is quite convenient, all the animations in the game - smooth. Nice thought and sounds vividly reflecting the atmosphere of secrecy, reigning in the castle.Although navigation has some limitations (for example, to select an item must hover over it with stylus and press a button), the game as a whole exciting and lovers of the genre roleplaying games.
All navigation in the game by a stylus. Them you set the direction of the helicopter and destroy tanks and artillery. During the game will need to simultaneously collect the missile, money, medicine chest and the heart (glasses, probably added for the transportation of organs for transplant - as without potboiler:).
The first look at the schedule adjusts to the unique style: an icon in the form of the head of Loch Ness on a platter, and the peculiar combination of characters of The Lord of the Rings "and" X-men "in the menu window is extremely funny. There are no levels, no champions - in every battle you simply choose a rival of the 4 possible. Using the buttons you hit the foot, hand, protect, move and jumps performed at the joystick. In the demo version for PocketPC 2003 and 2002, I ran into problems in the administration - the buttons are, unfortunately, did not respond adequately to my actions and I punctually watched himself in a reclining position. Despite all its shortcomings, Universe Mortal Tournament is one of the first specimens of the genre Games Fighting and worthy of review.
In each game, you have seven rivals differ on strategy and tactics. Begin by placing its troops in several stages, each stage of rivals in turn distributes its armed forces. The next stage - attacks and dislocations. You can attack only adjacent to your land - just drag the icon from your troops to the neighboring zamli. Exodus is solved by throwing dice game - if you have more points, you win. Depending on the balance of forces might have to roll the dice a few times. And in the course of attacks - the loss among men, lost ground ... Have to concentrate to win. If everything has already been won, upload a new level and continue his march.More than 100 maps were created fans of the game and is available for free download from the developer. A brilliant example of good ideas - when the simple graphics and lack of variety of sound effects do not affect the excitement.
"Shisey-sho" is a variation of "Mahjong". Just as in the previous game, here it is necessary to remove the bones in pairs, but in "Shisey-sho" these bones should be placed so that they could tie an imaginary line or three lines articulated lines do not intersect with other bones. And finally, the "Uplands" - a game to train memory and attention, or "Mahjong vice versa." Bone demonstrated a few seconds, then turn face up. Must disclose the bones in pairs with the same pattern. Can you remember the location of 64 units? It turns out that quite a little workout ... The game is made well. Fully customizable - you can change the layout of the dice, take part in multi-level competition with increasing levels of difficulty, play with a friend. Excellent graphics and great sound effects.
Nevertheless, the game itself was good. Its style resembles Space Invaders: coasting around the neighborhood of the planet, you move your ship left and right and shoot at anyone approaching, on a course paid for the destruction. Money can then spend on ship equipment, because to put them like this is disappointing, nowhere else. From destruction araktsev fingers get tired after 10 minutes - you have to press the buttons around the device (click Address book and To Do - to move the ship left and right button, Calendar - for the shots). The game has no menus. All the main settings - the state of the vessel, the rate of fire and the possibility of purchases - provided the user with only the beginning New game.
Each puzzle provides a number of objects that, when properly combined with each other, will solve the problem.Thus, from the candle, magnifier and flashlight to build a detonator and attach it to the explosives.
For every problem there is more than one solution.
The game contains over 70 puzzles and 50 objects. You can add to your list of tasks and objects, by downloading them from the site developer. Using various objects, you can also start to create their own problems. Convenient menus and tips to help you not to get lost while playing, navigation and mastered fairly quickly. Good graphics, programmers have worked well over the fact that the game respected the laws of physics - you will not be stunned impossible to solve. Maybe all that really remains just figured out ...
Hundred meters. Watch for breathing, lay out the full program - you have to win the champion - the leader in points on your PDA. With each victory you raise the bar of Olympic records. Long jump. Run as fast as possible, jump, not stepping over the line. Classic 2 attempts. Steeplechase. See section one hundred meters. Do not forget to jump. Javelin throw and the hammer. Since childhood, watching with interest in these activities in anticipation of the error. Everything was interesting, throw them in the audience? In my memory Nobody has ever accomplished. Perhaps you will become the first in the history of sports ?..:) And finally, the World Cup, not available in demo version. Opening, followed by a funny animations, contests and closure, in which the contents of the animation depends on your results. Whew ... Not a bad workout ... Run on!
Despite the modest graphics, the game really drags. Eventually you discover that every free minute camest to his cactus to look "like they are there" - while you are busy with their chores and do not look at your PDA, they continue to grow, dry, aging and ill. As is the case with Lemonade Tycoon, here you feel incredible surge of strength and belief in themselves as in excellent entrepreneurs. Importantly, however, in time to "feel the difference."
So, what's more ... Yes! Guide also provides you with bonuses for each neutralized the bomb. Them in our office - even a dime a dozen - the enemies have tried. Well, go! We hope for you! "
In AgentZ more than 20 game levels. You have to manage their "funny little man," ran through the enemy headquarters and install the camera and microphones. Easy navigation and fairly intuitive interface. Collect points and upload their results to the Internet - you may be the best of our agent to you today? .. Today - everything. Other than your weekend and see you to the following:) The authors, translation:
Pocket PC
Tower of Souls (The Haunted Castle)
Despite a rather confused plot with lots of trendy items a-la «Lord of the Rings, the game is quite interesting to do and is the most likely candidate for most popular game of this genre for the Pocket PC. Similar to interface with the acclaimed Diablo, Tower of Souls is equipped with everything that needed a good RPG game: a set of secret rooms, treasures and items that have magical powers. Your goal - to find the 3 magic crystal "Naydus and destroy the stronghold of the evil forces of the castle - the demon Balhatroka. On this thorny path you will meet fellow skeletons, goblins, dragons and other members of a host of spirits. In addition, you will avoid the collapsing walls, miniature tornadoes and pits.Pocket Battlefield (Pocket fights)
Developer Pocket Battlefield Kitcom Entertainment Company presented its plan to combat terrorism with the help of a helicopter. Choose your own way by which you will contribute to the eradication of evil, set up the difficulty level, game speed, and - go ahead! More than 15 jobs you have to do before the world cleansed of terrorists. I was not clear what relationship the destruction of tanks and antiaircraft guns on the different landscapes is to eradicate terrorism in the society, well let's leave it on the conscience of manufacturers.Universe Mortal Tournament (Deadly battles of the Universe)
The representative of the kind of "pugnacious" in our review. You will have to compete with the envoys of different civilizations from all over the universe. Fights are not for life and death at 3 levels of difficulty. On the seriousness of this game is over.Pocket Conquest (Conquest)
Pocket Conquest - a prototype of the board game Risk - is a fine example strategichskoy game. Before proceeding to the test, I looked through the screenshots and comments about the game in the forum. Players spoke of a "week of fun games and on neostyvayuschem interest. It was hard to believe it, looking at the unpretentious schedule. The night of that day, I forgot about everything spent on the game, waking up only when he realized that the room was dawn.GameBox Asia
Another thing worthy of an entire collection of masterpieces from the developer PDAMill. At this time - a series of well-known eastern games included - "Mahjong," "Shisey-sho" and "Uplands." The word "mahjong" in Chinese means "the twittering of sparrows" - sound like the clicking of mahjong dice. Goal of the game - to remove all the dice are lined with a pyramid of finding two with the same pattern.Palm OS
Ara-Que Assault (Invasion of Arak)
Reading the story of games at times resembles a short video content, published on cassettes - many of the "key" words, the almost complete mismatch between actual content and presentation of confusion. So in the case of Ara-Que Assault. President of the Earth receives information that a certain planet Arak found dangerous weapon aimed into space. He responds immediately - you among other brave souls are sent to the planet Arak (Ara-Que) with orders to destroy everything that walks, flies, and (Warning) looks dangerous. A feast of spirit! Fantasy flexing its muscles and the Hollywood smile looks a monochrome display.Amazing World (Wonderful World)
Beautiful and practically the only of its kind - Amazing World. This toy is a set of puzzles to solve that need to be creative. All the puzzles are based on real-world objects - buckets, blocks, liquids. Here you will find and skillfully composed problems for children, and examples of more complicated for adults.Crazy Athletics (Athletics)
From now on you can run, jump, hammer throw and spear not shift from their seats. So, the winner of Palm Magazine Pilot Player, multiple world champion in Athletics (every day, so the champion - not a day without a champion!) - Crazy Athletics!Plant Tycoon (Tycoon-grower)
Winner of numerous awards and excellent reviews from the players, Plant Tycoon - one of the finest copies of the simulations. You start your business with a couple of dollars and a handful of seeds. We'll have a lot of work, caring for their plants, making sure that they do not dry and not infected by conducting mating and getting new varieties. Sell their green pets, and some money to buy new seeds, grow new generation. Your task - to get 4 magic plants by crossing different species - they will bring you good fortune and fame.AgentZ (Agent Z)
"... Tssss ... Just about anyone! Evil agents have already got ... To you all our hope ... I'll give you a pistol. Did you install them cameras and microphones. Here you travel. That's building plans.If necessary, take whatever you want in the rooms. Can ride the elevator, the charter is not precluded. You see the enemy - the open fire.

Give a receipt that they received. Subscribe here and here. Do not eat now, there cyanide!Subjective notes on the screen, Palm m505
Thus, the screen m505 ... Screen, which was a lot of debate before the official release of Palm m505, and which argue more now that the new machine went on sale (in US).
Immediately make a reservation. If anyone expected, picking up a m505, it sees Casio E-125 in a miniature version and a Palm OS - let these dreams to better times. M505 screen differs from the screen E-125 as well as oil painting on canvas, is different from a color photo. Now, let's see if it is good or bad. When you first turn machines screen seemed somewhat dull, if not gloomy. Such an "image in pastel colors (not to be confused with" sex ";). Only later I realized what was going on. Background! That's what makes the m505 screen is absolutely different from the screens of other color PDAs. Background screen m505 is not white, but rather looks like a light gray metallic. Accordingly, the color will look like, pastel. After an hour of work with m505 screen no longer seemed bleak. On the contrary, he is pleased me more and more. All colors on the m505 clear and well distinguishable. Light gray background gives some sense of "depth of color." And, most importantly, from a color screen is absolutely not tired eyes (for example, after an hour of working with E-125's eyes are quite tired of the excessive brightness of the screen, especially if the room was poorly lit). The next moment was a nice "behavior" m505 on the street in bright sunshine. The screen reads everything! Absolutely everything! I do not know how to behave in such circumstances, the new color Sony Clie, but the available color devaysov, m505, perhaps, has the "read" the screen in bright sunlight.
Game soft parade, or driving a new bat O

New unorthodox approach, which still causes many disputes about the convenience and affordability - the game is placed in the main screen of your Pocket PC - Today Screen.

Despite statements by developers that play in their casinos virtulanom possible and real money guarantee of safety of your money no one provides as well for the winnings are asked to provide addresses and e-mail. More and more games take on a dual-platform. Sooner or later, this trend will play its role as software companies begin to translate their games to a multiplayer platform. In this issue you will find two games, gained their lives on the second axis. In general, the growth of creativity in the gaming industry, I talked about in the last issue, not reduced. And it pleases. Standard games are retreating. Original - attacked, and as soon realize cycling even baseball bats.
