BlackBerry is a  communication device and a favourite among business users. However, it’s not all about work. If you have some time to spare, built in games in your BlackBerry will come in handy. For a start, your BlackBerry has already built in games in your games folder. However, if you need more games, there are hundreds of free and paid games for your device online.

Where can we find BlackBerry games? The BlackBerry is a multi-talented pltform, but, compared to devices such as Apple’s iphone, getting games into your BlackBerry device can be tricky. Until BlackBerry’s Storefornt is officially available, there isn’t one direct place to download or buy games from like there is if you have an iphone.

Choice is a wonderful thing, but  it also can be confusing, so I would recommend you to go either www.handmark.com or www.handango.com. Handmark specializes in selling third-party applications for smartphones from virtually every platform available. The purchasing process is slick and you can pay via paypal or credit card. However, the downside of Handmark is that there is no free games  available for the BlackBerry.

Another site that sells BlackBerry games is Gameloft (www.gameloft.com) which you can access on your PC or directly from your handset. Choose the BlackBerry section, enter the details such as your cell numbers, so the game can be sent directly to your handset, and then choose your model and carrier. If the game is available for your carrier and handset, you will get a choice of payment options -SMS, Pay Pal or credit card. If you pay by SMS,  you will only be charged once you accept the download on your device, the cost of which will then be added to your cell phone bill.

Free games are available  online if you know where to look, but you’ve got less guarantee of compatibility. We headed to www.mobilerated.com, which promises several free Java-based games for BlackBerry.

If you’re not sure which games to try, you may want to head to www.berryreview.coom, which contains many BlackBerry titles.
