9 Bounce Evolution (Free, Platform: Maemo)

If you have used any of Nokia’s earlier feature phones, you might have come across a little game called Bounce, where you control a red rubber ball as it rolls and bounces along the level while navigating through a maze of obstacles.

Bounce Evolution is literally an evolution of the original platformer, making great use of the N900’s accelerometer to control the ball’s movement as well as its GPU to render some very impressive 3D graphics. While not as sophisticated as some games out there, it’s still a nice distraction to pass the time and also gives you a good indication of what the N900 is capable of.
