FREE Aces Traffic Pack Puzzle Game

Thanks to Ronen at BerryReview for letting me know about this free game. This version includes 40 levels of increasing difficulty, great graphics and sound effects, stat tracking and a tutorial mode to get you started. Its a fairly big app at 3.5MB but it could be worth it to pass the holiday time away.

Get it here.

Happy Boxing Day!

Free Animated Christmas Theme by MMMOOO

Here's a festive theme to liven up your BlackBerry for the Christmas season! I am usually not a fan of animated themes but this one I can handle. The animation is subtle enough not to be annoying (twinkling lights on the tree) and the icons and screen layout are actually bearable. Most of the time all of the effort is put into the animation and the layout and icons are just tossed in. There is great integration of the theme thoughout other applications as well. It has a very cozy feel to it and I think this one just might survive through the holidays for me. Then its back to my all time favorite: SEIS with OS 6 icons by Ninja Themes. More info on that one here.

You can get the Animated Neon Christmas Theme at App World. Here's a direct link.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

More BBM Avatars

Some more of my favorite BBM Avatars:

HOT! BBM Phantom Avatars

You may or may not have seen these on your friends' BBM profiles. They are the latest craze and are pretty cool. Some look totally invisible or like a default icon UNTIL you hover over them! Then the hidden picture/message is revealed! Pretty cool. Here are some of my favorites:

To put one of these on your BBM profile, just save it to your SD card and change it to your profile pic.

Any questions? Just let me know in the comments!

Copter! Free Helicopter Game!

The classic helicopter game is now available for BlackBerry and its free! Copter is very simple and extremely addictive.

For non touch devices, push and hold any non-control key to make the helicopter go up. And release to let it fall. For touch devices simply touch the screen to go up and release to fall down. Avoid the obstacles and see how long you can survive! How far can you go?

Best Tic Tac Toe Game is Free! Oh and its the best!

Another free game from XIMAD BlackBerry Applications and this one is a hit as well. I know what you're thinking...ok, maybe I don't, but I THINK I know what you're thinking. How fun can tic tac toe be really? Well it CAN be fun, especially when you play the 6X6 mode against a very challenging "phone" (what we used to call "computer" back in the good old days). I played 3 times so far and the blasted phone has won 2 and I managed to tie the third game.

The game looks great and its a great way to kill some time. I also like the custom features of playing against another living human and adding names. Simple, addictive and fun. Just like Look and Listen (simon says clone) which I reviewed earlier: http://jsbbblog.blogspot.com/2010/09/free-look-and-listen-game.html
