'''Centipede:''' Blast away all the approaching Centipede bits.  
It contains the following games:
* Centipede - Blast away all the approaching Centipede bits.
* Snake - Guide the Snake towards the numbered blocks.
* Invaders - Destroy all the Alien Invaders before they reach the bottom of the screen.
* Light Cycles - Guide your way away from the enemy lines in a rather basic remake of the classic Tron game.
* Asteroids - Shoot all the floating Asteroids for whatever reason there ever was for doing it in any other version of the game.
* Racer - This game has been hidden like some Easter Egg.


'''Snake:''' Guide the Snake towards the numbered blocks.  
* Escape - Grab the blue square and keep it away from the red ones.
* Missile Command - Destroy the approaching missiles, before they destroy your bases.
* Dot Pop - With 30 seconds on the clock, hit as many squares as you can.
* Pacman - With two full screens of pills to empty, and eight ghosts running around, you’d better get moving.
* Frogger - Passes 2 huge busy roads instead of river.
* Pong - Just you, a CPU, and a ball. Number of ball would increase as difficulty increases.
* Tetris - Classics added according to requests.


'''Invaders:''' Destroy all the Alien Invaders before they reach the bottom of the screen.
* Buzzard Bait! - Flap about and kill the other jousters. Collect their eggs before the re-hatch.
* Lights Out - Tap the grid to invert a + of lights. Switch them all off to advance to the next level.
* 5 in a Line - Shuffle the grid around to match up 5 tiles of the same color in a single line.
* Tune Tap - A tune is played, then repeat it. It’s like a really cheap version of Parappa.
* QBert - Hop around the blocks, color them all in, and avoid the flashing balls of death.
* Dodge Spikes - Move left and right, avoid all the spikes, and collect as many coins as possible.
