MY TOP TimE WaSter Games On Win8 OS

While our Windows Phones can be tremendous productivity devices, they are also fantastic entertainment devices. From watching movies, listening to your favorite music files or playing games your Windows Phone can help you pass the time.

This week's roundup we'll stray from the top rated lists in the Windows Phone Store and approach things from more of a personal angle by highlighting five current gaming titles on my Windows Phone. Games that I have found to be great time wasters.

As a bonus, most of these games can easily stand up to longer gaming sessions if you prefer.

2048 Plus

What I like? I like the simple gaming mechanics that are matched with challenging game play that tests your skills at strategy.

Rainbow Rapture

What I like? I like seeing how high you can send your cloud into the sky. The controls are uncomplicated with you tapping/holding the screen to have your cloud dive and release your hold to have your cloud jump. The trick is holding the screen while the cloud dives down a hill and release your hold to let the cloud ride its momentum into the sky.

Hungry Shark Evolution

What I like? I like the simple gaming concept. While there are several quests you can take on, if you are in the mood for mindless game play all you need to do is steer your shark around the depths of the ocean terrorizing swimmers, pelicans, other sharks, scuba divers and more.

Subway Surfers

What I like? It's the pace of the game that draws me to Subway Surfers. The mechanics are easy to pick up on and consist of a series of screen swipes (swipe left to go left, right to go right, up to jump, etc.) but the pace creates the challenge. Ducking, dodging and jumping through the train yard will keep you on your toes and the bonus items helps keep the game interesting.

Snap Attack

What I like? While the other games in this week's roundup will test your skills of timing, strategy and reflex Snap Attack challenges your brain. You do have the elements of speed but the game tests your knowledge of words (and proper spelling). I also like the 2.5 minute games that are well suited for short gaming spurts and the online competition.
