12th October 2009: Our first games for Android smartphones!
In our continuing efforts to make your favorite games available for a wide choice of different platforms, we're very pleased to let you know that we've released our first 3 games for Android® smartphones!
Astraware Solitaire, Astraware Sudoku, and Astraware Boardgames are all now available to purchase for your Android smartphone from Handmark.com and direct on your phone on the Android Market!
Astraware Solitaire includes 12 of the most popular single player card games in one pack. Each game has user-customizable gameplay so you can play using your favorite variation on the standard rules. The game also includes a choice of gorgeous card graphics and our fun reward system - the Golden Trophy Deck - which can be earned through various achievements and used to play with once the whole pack is unlocked!
Now widely recognized as one of the best Sudoku games for mobile, Astraware Sudoku is our multiple award-winning take on the worldwide puzzle phenomenon. Packed with features, Astraware Sudoku includes multiple ways to get and enter puzzles, a Sudoku solver and a wide range of assistance that helps you both learn the game and improve your technique.
Astraware Boardgames features 7 classic board games in 1 easy to use pack. The games have all been designed with casual players and non-experts in mind, and the look and feel of each game evokes the feel of classic boardgames played on wooden boards!
5th October 2009: Changes to the Astraware website
As you will probably have noticed, we have given the site a little makeover - a new logo, new categories and a brighter look. We've re-arranged some of the features on the front page too, so you can easily see 'What's New' and recent 'Hot Reviews' of our games!
You might also have noticed that our basket is now running on Handmark.com (our parent company), so any checkouts you make (except iPhone) will go to Handmark.com and this means you'll purchase using Handmark's superior browsing and checkout system which includes Shop By Device, so you'll only see the games that are compatible with your phone. You also have the option of SMS message delivery so you can download your purchase direct from an SMS link and additional payment options including direct operator billing.
If you have any feedback or questions on our new look site or the purchasing process, don't hesitate to get in touch!
