Back before the iPhone, Apple had the iPod. For a brief period of time, iTunes sold games for the iPod. This included many well known games like Sonic, Final Fantasy, Pac-Man, Breakout, Tetris, and more!

Same! I loved that game and played it nightly for weeks. Ended up find a hack in it when you are playing against the AI. If you offer a trade to the AI, its select screen always flashes on screen for a second before yours. If you hit menu on yours it takes you back to the AI's selection screen and you can make it give you whatever you want! This basically ruined normal play for me.

Vortex was my favorite and the mechanics were great. It was a brick breaker game built around the click wheel, so your paddle was positioned around a circular edge and you had to break through circular walls of bricks until you reached the center. You could set it so that scrolling clockwise would move the paddle clockwise OR so your paddle would zoom to wherever you touched the click wheel. I got so good at it

I was always weirdly into semi-crappy technology as a child, even old outdated pocket dictionaries and things. I had an iPod nano as a child and there's a special kind of magic these games had for me that they still have when I see them and I feel like is hard to capture in anything else. These clickwheel games were the coolest thing in the world to me as a child and I spent too many hours playing Cake Mania on the clickwheel. Wish I could still access these!

There was a circular brick breaking game (that I think was called vortex?) that came standard on my little red iPod nano that my dad bought me for Christmas in highschool. Because the layout was circular and you had to move your paddle on a circular track, using the clickwheel was actually surprisingly intuitive. I spent a lot of my school commutes playing that one.

I actually beat all of Sonic on my iPod Classic, it wasn't too bad if I recall. I actually really enjoyed it, if the controls were a bit funky at times. To this day it's the only Sonic game I've ever completed. Good memories. It was during a season of my life where I was too young to have a job and buy a new console. And both ny older brothers had "out grown" video games, so my parents didn't want to buy any new consoles. So I was starved of new games.

It only ever pulled from like the same 20 songs, and if you had an audio book it would find it and use it in the game. It made things weird.

I remember playing Song Summoners on my old 30 gig Ipod. It was basically Final Fantasy Tactics but with a different world and enemies. The way you made your team was by uploading the songs IN your library into the game. They then turned into soldiers with different abilities. The coolest gimic was if the song had the word Hero or Super Hero in the title then the monster soldier thing was more rare and more powerful. It to my middle school/ high school mind had a very fun and interesting stories but i never beat it because it drained my battery.

You would tilt the iPod in the direction you wanted the ball to roll. Since those two iPods were the only ones with both a click wheel and an accelerometer, the game was never available on any other iPods.

I fondly remember a game called Song Summoners made by Square Enix, that I had on my 5th gen iPod nano. It was a full fledged JRPG with a pretty neat story. The gimmick of the game was that you fought using troops that were generated from the music you had in your library. And they're stats, type, and rarity were all dependant on the song you used to make it. I know once the iPod touch came out, they released a new version of the game with a slightly altered story. But I have no idea if either version has been preserved

I fondly remember playing Parachute for an ungodly number of hours. Also, it seemed the kids at the school I went to only cared about Solitaire, and it was a game in of itself to win from 1st period and see who won at lunch. Ah, memories.

On the Nano, there was this neat quiz game that had random music trivia questions mixed with questions about the music on the device based on the songs' metadata. The other two games I had on it were Klondike and this game where you get a ball from one end of some mazes to the other by tilting the device.

I remember having a phone that came pre-installed with a jetpack man game. It played okay with keypads, but it's only noteworthy because it used the Chemical Plant Zone theme as the backing music. I also remember my brother had a strip poker game on his phone. But neither of those matter in light of the greatest mobile game: Snake on Nokia phones.
