local multiplayer games - General Questions and Answers

hello,
Im looking for some 2 player games for my android phone.
Any game that you can play at the same time with someone on the same phone is a bonus. Like a Pong clone.
any suggestions or list will be appreciated.

In for answer.

4 player reactor or 2 player reactor.
only ones i can remember atm

Astraware board games. Up to four depending on the game. Good stuff.

This is the most robust 2 player version of pong on the market, I only wish the paddle could keep up with your fingers.

The Game Recommendation Thread

The Game Recommendation Thread
All of you that have XDA's knows that a good time-waster is fun games. But
where do you find these fun games? Choosing between thousands of
thousands of games can be quite a lackluster.
My idea of this thread is to let people post their game recommendations for
XDA's, URL's to the games can come handy too. Everyone looking for fun
games can later on use this thread instead of making new ones. We'll
have all high-quality games gathered in one thread.
My recommendations are:
Monopoly - http://www.pdalive.com/monopoly.php
Age of Empires - http://www.pdajunkie.net/ageofempires.htm
Duke Nukem 3D - http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=11579&highlight=duke3d
Come on fill the thread with your top game recommendations!
A decent freeware game that I've played for years is ICBM, a version of the old Missile Command game.
A version for ARM chips (which works with my I-mate) is here:

My favourite game at the moment id Crazy Bubbles by Pocketmind, they give you a free trial of it when you download Pocket Music and I got hooked- it's like Jawbreaker, only good!
My current favorite is Li-nuggz: one big plus that it can map the phone call/end buttons on xda1.

I like Netmaster

I also use morphgear emulator , so I can play tons of old console games
Pocket War is cool
http://www.metalshard.com/pocketpcgames.html
I'm using Nintendo / Super Nintendo / Sega / Game Boy Advance emulators to play games designed for Nintento (NES) / SNES / Sega / GBA and other platforms...
These games are really great.
Just take a look on some screen shots here: http://www.emu-land.net/site.php?depth=1&razd=roms

I use Morphgear as well. It's great playing old classic SNES games on it. It's a bit slow on my XDA IIs though.
XDA IIs is good for morphgear because there are enough button to map a SNES joypad onto it. I've heard you can even map it to the thumbboard, which I need to try still.
Morph + VBoy

These emulators provide fast speed and good sound (when turned off radio, no programs running in background and sound frequency is lowered to xda's (22.1))
Morph for NES/SNES/Sega = fast speed and good sound
and
VBoy for GameBoyAdvance = fast speed and good sound
As for joy, I hate the virtual pad and assign the following keys:
Camera button = Select/Modes
Recording button = Start
Contacts and Calendar = A and B
where X and Y are necessary I stop "cprog.exe" and assign buttons to Start and End talk buttons

Free - Shadowgun: Dead zone

Gears of War style game. Was much better before the update tho . Now it takes forever to get money for weapons all helmets need gold points which have to be paid for unless your lucky and win the jackpot. You get 1 free chance to play the slot machine everyday. And the damn ****storm is the perfect noob weapon. You don't even have to shoot anybody with that gun just shoot in their area and they're dead

great thread, both modern combat 3 & 4 are multi-player
------------------
opps just noticed the guy above me posted that!
I have multiplayer mode in my memory game - Memory Owl HD. It's simple - players take turns, the one with most points wins. Good for children, I don't play it much though. I would gladly play multiplayer in some Bomberman clone - anyone knows a good one that has decent multiplayer (hot-seat with a keyboard / game controler would be awesome)?

(REQ) Minesweeper multiplayer (FOUND!)

(see post 3)
Hi,
In old times when we had Nokia symbian smartphones, I loved a minesweeper game in papaya java app. It is played between two players amd instead of saving ur self from mines here you have to find mines. The table has 17 mines in total. The player to find 9 mines first wins the game. I really miss that game. hopefully someone here can make a game like that which we can play online with another player.
if such game already exist then please do inform me.
also if you agree with the game idea or want something more in it, please post here.
Re: (REQ) Minesweeper multiplayer

Re: (REQ) Minesweeper multiplayer

need asynchronous multiplayer game - play with friends during spare free time

Hi guys,
me and my friends are looking for a game that allows us to play against or cooperate. This game needs to be playable during the spare free time we have in working days. We just want to have some fun together during the day, any suggestion will be appreciated
If i have to give an example, we played Travian in the past, but after the initial phases of the game it becomes too much time-requesting to compete with other Travian fanatics
Thank you so much for you help!
I'm looking too for this kind of game.
So far the only game I've got is advance wars with a GBA emulator !
There also Pocket Soccer, but it has to be played simultaniously by 2 players.

[GAME][FREE][2.3.1+] Epic Ball Game: Space Soccer. Air hockey is dead?

Hi all!
This is confusing but there are many air hockey games out there that were rather popular a couple of years ago. Since then the mobile game market evolved so much! There are full-scale AAA games comparable to their PC analogs sharing top 10 positions with very simple games like Subway Surfers where you only need to swipe left-right and top-bottom. Following that logic there still has to be a place for air hockey games, which fall in-between.
As a gamer myself I found rather boring lots of classic air hockeys where you cannot touch a puck directly with your finger. In addition, I thought that it might become entertaining to have different tricks and weapons to avoid monotonous puck back and forth movements. Next, I wanted to replace a puck to something more interesting… maybe a ball? Finally, I wanted to play this game with my friends and with pretty anybody in the world… at least in the radius with affordable network latency. And there should be a possibility to easily invite players to combat with me. Oh, one more thing! While I am offline or just want to master my game skill, I want to see somebody. A paddle? No, it’s boring! Let it be some strange lively creature! And with all this stuff in mind a new game arrived just today to see the world – meet the Epic Ball Game: Space Soccer!
Since this forum is full of interesting people I wish to hear your opinion about this game – does it have a future?
