    Hey guys, Happy Tuesday!

    So listen, I need your suggestions. I have a dreadfully sluggish and slow job behind a bland desk where I handle accounting this and filing that. I need a great game that I can play subtley that doesn't require shaking or time limits or anything too fancy. But I am looking for addiction! Must pass the time.

    Ideas? Doesn't matter the price!

    Try Star Hogs. No time limits, and you can have as much time as you like on your turn.

    Take a look at Pharaoh ($0.99).

    No timer, simple gameplay, no tiny tiles to play with and it can properly resume.

    This was one of my favorite Palm games and the iPhone version was recently released.

    I have Peggle, but great suggestion. I LOVE Baseballl Sluggers but that doesn't work too well for me at work.

    Star Hogs.... ive eyed that one a few times that one looks good, and it looks like Worms missed the mark so im not even considering that. And Pharaoh... hmmm ill look into that. Great suggestions so far guys

    Trixel is good!

    all Popcap games are great!

    The new Triazzle game that comes out in a few days is going to be an addicting classic.

    I advise you to look at some youtube videos so that you know what the games are like ;)

    If you like platform adventure games like Mario or Banjo Kazooie, get Bugdom 2 or Otto-matic. Those games are still quite unappreciated. If you are more casual, get Bejeweled 2 or some puzzler. Better yet, a TD game, since you don't need your eyes glued to the screen the whole time. Boomer's Sky Fishing is really fun. Oh Mummy or pocket hunter maybe. Paper Toss is good for work. And that's about all I got.

    I like puzzlers I think that would be the ideal game for work. Something that doesn't require movement yet I can take my time. DownToZero... ill have to look into that one never heard of it.

    Great game!

    I'd also suggest getting some crossword games... they're my all-time favorite time killer. You can take long breaks and come back, take as much time as you need, and they can kill time for hours if you like them enough.

    If word games aren't your thing, and logic puzzles wont' fill the gap, some turn-based strategy titles could likely fill your time, like Slay and Uniwar.

    rasta monkey is great. There are no time limits and it is very fun. No accelerometer means you can be sneaky. If someone else has an iphone, try out bomberman 2. they updated controls now and the battle mode is great fun, especially when trapping a co worker with a bomb.

    Monospace for the win!

    In my book, Monospace is one of the best time wasters on the platform. The simple and slick interface is but a gateway to mind bending puzzles. The sense of satisfaction you get from completing some of those puzzles..ahhh.. so good!
