Summary: A good deal!
Review: I have had not problems with the card! The games are good and I tossed the freeware versions I had on the palm.I am surprised at the bad ratings of others. Don't know why they are having problems. This was a good buy for me.

Summary: Really F U N -- but is it worth the high price???
Review: I plan to review each of the games included on this Games Card individually: It was by pure chance that I have this particular Games MMC card for my trusty Palm m130, and I played it virtually non-stop the first couple of weeks after I got it. First off I was absolutely GLUED to Sim City. I had never played the game before on my home PC, so I was in for quite a treat. I couldn't believe what the game could do! However, my passion for playing Sim City died out MUCH sooner than I had anticipated...but there were other games loaded on the card, so...4-stars. I switched to Bubblet...I had played the demo version of this for almost 6-months before and absolutely LOVED it. The graphics on the Games Card were a little fuzzy compared to the demo I had played, but it still performs great...a sure-fire winner of a game...5-stars. 9-Ball is a Palm version of pinball...really haven't been interested in this particular game at all...1-Star. Chroma is a combination 3-games-in-1 combo which includes Backgammon, Checkers and Chess. I've never been much on Backgammon or Checkers, but I really love the Chess and the multiple game settings...3-stars. Klondike is basic Solitaire...another game that I have never really gotten into in my life, but once I started, I have been forever hooked. I am not all that pleased that 96% of the games cannot be won (at least by me) but when I finally win a game it really puts me through the roof!...5-stars. PXBlackjack is straightforward and simple...you can decide on your (fake) bet, and see if you come out a winner...I imagine the odd's right about the same as playing in a casino -- but a whole lot less expensive...2-stars. Zap!2016...This is the game I was the most excited about. I had been playing Zap!2000 for almost a year now and figured that 2016 was an upgraded version with different settings and levels and I was PROFOUNDLY disappointed that this is NOT the case at ALL. Essentially 2016 is EXACTLY the same as 2000 with just ONE MINOR difference: The Background. That's IT. The battle scenes and asteroids and alien ships are all IDENTICAL...they are even set in the exact same order, too. Basically, if you own Zap!2000 you already own Zap!2016 -- do NOT buy this Games card based upon the belief you are getting a new and improved version -- it ISN'T, pure and simple...4-stars. One other reviewer noted that this card is a 16mb card, but these games use up less than 2...so why so much extra wasted space? For the cost, couldn't you add a few extra games? Other than Sim City which separately is HORRIBLY over priced, you could buy all the games on this games card for much less, or get them FREE on various Palm Games websites. Over all, this card has supplied me with a HUGE number of hours of entertainment... and I probably sound more displeased than I actually am, but I just question the price of this card versus how many games are actually provided. Something to think about.

Summary: Good alternative
Review: I think that this was a good choice, because you can erase games of your Palm and free space. Remember, Palm is not a toy. You will not have a Gameboy Advance in your hands if you purchase this Game Card. But I am sure that this can keep you entertained in your free time.

Summary: Perfectly adequate - I'm now a gambling fool
Review: I was surprised at the number of negative reviews here for this Game Pak - I just received it as a gift and have been playing the games frequently over the last few days, and I'm pretty satisfied. The card installed and ran the games flawlessly, and the games themselves are simple but highly addictive and entertaining. (Apparently there is a memory leak in Zap!2016, but I'll admit I haven't played that one enough to notice. Hey, I have a slot machine to beat here.) Let's face it - the Palm is not a high-end gaming platform, and even m505 owners should not expect a stupendous experience. The best games for this size screen are the simplest ones. Klondike is the same as always, with slightly nicer graphics but no scoring. Chroma is a nice three-in-one package of chess, checkers, and backgammon (great for 2-person games on long trips), Vegas Slots and Blackjack are faithful reproductions of their real-life counterparts and SimCity is very basic but contains the essence of the original (I imagine this one is much better in color). I had none of the technical difficulties of the other reviewers, and I have no problem with the fact that this card is a) only 10% full, and b) thirty bucks. A collection of games like this probably pays the developers a small fraction of the retail price, and we should be supporting people like them if we want better games in the future. I wish they could find a way to selectively unlock the SD card though, so the saved games would also live in there and the memory footprint of the whole pak (er, minus the patches) would be zero. Bottom line: It's a fine price to pay for a collection of fun, good-looking games. Not perfect, but still very much worth it.

Summary: Some fun stuff on this card
Review: My favorite games on this card are Chroma's Backgammon, Checkers, and Chess. Slightly buggy in that I think the computer cheated once or twice with illegal moves, but that's rare. The pinball game is okay, though I worry about wearing out my buttons and there is only one playing board. The slot machine is too mindless to be very entertaining, and blackjack is only a little better. Bubblet is very cool -- FreeCell fans should like this one, and maybe other people too. Klondike is a good implementation. Sim City is okay but I haven't played enough to figure out the point (if there is one). Zap!2016 is a nice arcade style game, but diffucult to see on the monochome display. More games would have been nice.

Summary: Fine games, but buggy and too few
Review: The games themselves are interesting and fun to play; not all of them are outstanding, but they're all at least pretty good. I found Zap!2016 to be a lot of fun, Bubblet addictive, and SimCity really well done. The card is easy to use, although there is a slight delay when loading the menu in Apps or loading a game - normal when accessing a card. But potential buyers should be aware that there are problems with the software on the card that need to be resolved if the games are to work properly. Zap!2016 can eat up your main memory, and Vegas Slots and Klondike can stop functioning altogether. See the Palm web site for details and solutions. Fortunately these problems are fixable, but I wish that these games had been tested more thoroughly before this card was released. The patch for Zap!2016 takes up 124 KB of your handheld's main memory, which undermines one of the chief advantages of this product, namely, that it frees up handheld RAM. I would also have liked more games on the card. The card itself is a 16 MB MultiMediaCard, of which the games take up only 1.6 MB. The selection of games seems a little light and could be a problem if, for example, a buyer doesn't much care for a couple of games, such as the Vegas-style gambling games or the card games, and ends up using only a few games on the card. I personally would have liked a strategy game in the mix; others may find other reasons to quibble about the selection. Still, why so few games? Would more have pushed the price higher? In sum, this game card is satisfying - I do use it quite often - but I'm not entirely sure it's worth what it costs.

Summary: Great Compilaton of Games
Review: The majority of the games are absolutely great. There are few that are dated, but the card is definately worth the price. Great way to pass the time.

Summary: Games work on Color, Greyscale, etc.
Review: The thing I really like about this card is I bought it for my m505 and then I went to an i705 and all of the games still played the same, just in greyscale. I liked the fact that there was a variety of different types of games. Granted, I didn't like all of them, but some I liked, and some my wife liked. I sure saved a lot of money by buying all of these games like this instead of one at a time and taking up my memory!

Summary: Worth every penny...
Review: This palmpack card is worth every penny. I bought it mainly for travelling. We live in Europe and do a lot of long drives so this definitely keep us entertained. My dad played chess from Naples to Austria. My husband is highly addicted to Simcity, he wouldn't give it up!? and I personally liked bubblet. This will keep you entertained for hours. It's definitely better than the games in our cell phones! :)
