Android phone owners like HTC’s Magic and T-Mobile’s G1 will be delighted to discover that a number of excellent free games are available, just hanging on Android Market for download.

Here are a few samples of them:

1. Mahjongg – A rather authentic version of the Japanese game. Regrettably, devices with touchscreen inputs are the only ones supported in this game, which practically discounts it except if your fingers are small enough to pick little images.

2. mem – This memory game, which requires rapid reflexes, brings out wacky sound effects, and has great touchscreen functionality, but with a rather limited attraction.

3. Minspace War – A shooting game using a phone’s tiny keypad as control surface. Even though visuals are good and the better gameplay on laptop’s or dedicated game consoles, tricky controls make it unworthy of download time.

4. MisMisMatch – The misleadingly easy puzzle game’s goal is to tap boxes set on a grid that are not presently a pair part to turn them over for matching them with the next box, and possibly remove from play. Assistance from tutorial mode will walk you through essentials, and varied difficulty configurations.

5. Namco’s Pac-Man – This is an excellent interpretation with all initial graphics, but input devices like the touchscreen and trackball is actually unseemly for playing the game.

6. Pop Pop Popcorn – With a virtual heating component to heat uncooked popcorn set on a grid waiting to pop, you must guarantee to stick your finger at an ample amount of time or nearby popcorn will be ablaze. It definitely belongs to the best available Android touchscreen games.

7. Santa’s War on Terror – This game highlights the western world’s much loved charity symbol in oblique terrorist encounters. Even though the title will possibly cause some giggling, bad visualization and hardly controllable St. Nick makes this a very unnecessary game to play with.

8. TxtSpeed – Here, words roll across the screen which has to be typed into a mini-keypad with speed.
