5.0 out of 5 stars Fun collection, September 4, 2001

For under 10 bucks you can't beat this collection of games. There are lots of different solitaire games, and many other miscellaneous games to pass the time. Great for those times when you're stuck waiting in the doctor's office or the checkout line. The collection includes lots of classic graphic games like Astroids, Froggy, Space Invaders, Flytrap, Pong, and so on, and more card games than you can shake a stick at, ranging from Crazy 8's, where you can have up to four players with the computer playing the other hands against you, to Cuarenta, a solitaire game I wasn't familiar with. There are many different types of solitaire. Altogether a pretty cool collection to fill those dull moments. The individual games don't take up much memory usually, but it you want to load many of them at once, make sure you have enough memory. One of the Palm's minor merits (among many, is that it doubles as a Gameboy, in addition to its organizer function, which probably makes it one of the most useful inventions of the 20 century.

1.0 out of 5 stars Just a bunch of Freeware, April 23, 2002

By A Customer

After playing one of the games for a little while, you get messages constantly popping up saying "If you want to continue playing, send money to ...". If you look at the back of the package, in fine print it says something about all of the games being "Trialware" or something like that.

2.0 out of 5 stars 100 Shareware Teases for the Palm, October 2, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: 100 Great Games for the Palm Computing Platform (CD-ROM)

I was disappointed when I found out many of the games require registering to get a fully functioning version. This should be clearly marked on the packaging and in all descriptions. I was going to say "you get what you pay for," but there are some great freeware apps out there for Palm. Search the 'Net!
