They're few and far between, but occassionally one will pop up that's worth playing. List any you know of here.

I'm contributing Jets'N'Guns gold. This is a MUST HAVE for all fans of side scrolling shooters. Bucketloads of weapons, great music, punishing difficulty and lots of secrets to find.

not sure if this counts -- but i own two playstation 2 games that have old arcade style games on em -- i love the old style games....and for "casual" gaming it works great - just put em in and turn it on and let it sit - pick it up when you want - good for "get togethers" -- got one with pacman and such - another with pong and galaxya? i think is how u spell it

those are great games, but those are classics. I'm talking about games that pop up along stuff like bejeweled or Magic Ball, but aren't lame like those. Real honest to god gaming gems hidden among legions of crap. Few and far between, but they are there.

"Soldier of Fortune" on ZX Spectrum. 1980. Very addictive.

For a game you pick up for a few minutes at a time, it needs to be a puzzle game. I normal keep one or two on my phone. Bookworm on my new phone and my old on was Scramble Blast which played similar to boggle.
