MahJong solitaire ... classic Windows-style MahJong tile matching game. Available from Bplay: BlackBerry Games, Themes and Entertainment. 24 hour free trial. Game costs $4.99. Runs very smooth and looks good on the Storm although the tiles are small so you may get a tad of eye-strain if you overdo it.

Game is completely unplayable. I hate it when these companies sell something that has to be played in compatibility mode as a Storm game. The tiles are tiny because half of the game space is taken up by a keypad. Out of compatibility mode, keypad is still there but you lose the ability to navigate. I'm just glad that I used a free gift card that BPlay sent to me to pay for it as it would have been and epic waste of money. Spades is a little better from them as it is playable but still does not use the native touch screen requiring you too use clumsy arrows to move around. After close to four months you would think a company with a name like BPlay would put out some apps for the first Blackberry meant to be played on instead of tricking people into thinking they have some compatible apps. So much for honesty in business.

Small, lite, free and it works. Graphics aren't fancy but who cares. Feed that solitaire addiction. Your tweaks make it look significantly better. Thanks. Now if only the real companies could put out some decent games. The only good ones so far have been the free ones, though who's complainin....

Game: Solytare
Price: FREE

OTA link: wap.getjar.com -> select Quick Download - > Enter 6593

In order to get it to look good in Landscape on the Storm, you need to tweak the settings a bit:

In Display:
Visible Card Spacing: about 20
Hidden Card Spacing: 4
Card height: 30

The game is just touch, no click needed, which I prefer in this game.
It's not gonna win any beauty awards, but it let's you play solitaire for free.

I agree there are some garbage games they put out there like crash bandicoot. The majority of the games on bplay are horrible....... except for maybe nintaii and guitar hero

StormSaber link does not work, I think it is because it's a paid app now, $3.50...

The free one from Odesys(spelling) works fairly well for me on .75...pretty good little game and the graphics seem pretty good. I like it.

Just realized that on the Chess Lite game you can only play online or on level 1. If you try to increase the level, it says that it is a feature not available on Chess Lite. So while it is a nice app, you basically will win every game on level one.

I'd still recommend the app...
