If you like puzzle games, there is a new and exciting game called Triple city available for the Kindle, which has awesome reviews. Even works well on the 2nd generation of Kindle, which cannot be said for all the Kindle games. It makes me happy, because I have the Kindle 2.
Triple city is simple and easy to learn. You establish similar controls on a Board and they turn to a more detailed object. For example, three grass squares turn into a flower that turns into a bush until finally you create buildings and castles. There are of course creatures eager to get in your way and interfere with your building process. You will also find hidden crystals that are considered "wild cards" for the game and can be of great value. There are also game tips, you can use as well.
Do not be fooled by the initial simplicity of the game. As you progress, you will find, there are a lot of strategy involved, and those that can lead to unexpected results.
It is nice to have a game that is mentally challenging, unlike brain numbing games such as Minesweeper or Oregon Trail. Talking about the Oregon Trail, I am surprised that there is not yet a Kindle version. Despite the thoughtless character to the game, I have good memories playing it on my calculator, when I had attention in math class.
But I digress. Spry Fox did an excellent job with the Triple city, and I hope to see more games from them in the future for the Kindle. The Kindle platform makes it difficult to make the game, but this could unleash a whole new realm of gaming. It is refreshing to see the new crop of games fare so well with the familiar, such as Solitaire and Scrabble.
