Other than iTunes, there are hundreds of places where you can find quality downloadable iPod games. Everyday, millions of iPod users are playing games like Monopoly, Bejeweled, Golf or Bowling on their entertainment devices. If you are looking for downloadable games for iPod, you will not be disappointed with what you will learn here.

Basically, all these places for downloadable iPod games can be categorized into 3 main groups. They are namely iTunes, free and paid download services.

iTunes - Parent Site For iPod Game Downloads

This is a no-brainer. Everyone knows that you can find games to download and play on your iPod at iTunes. However, the price tag of each game is $4.99. Naturally, there is no incompatibility issue with your iPod but for that price, it is not cheap.

Free to Download Sites

There are some game sites that offer free downloadable iPod games. We tested a few at iPodArcade and found them to provide more Trivia, Quiz-like games more than others. There are other networks like P2P and torrent networks that offer free games for iPod.

Unfortunately, we realized that there is a huge security risk in downloading from insecured sites. We have heard enough of adware, spyware and virus infiltration. All in all, the games are slow to download and some are corrupted and unplayable. We also found them quite boring. But well, they are free.

Paid Game Services

Other than iTunes, there are third party game developers that offer downloadable iPod games like Coolgorilla, XO Play, Malinche and iPodGames. While these are decent games, we found the selection way too small.

The great news here is that there are now new sites that run on membership models. For a flat membership fee of anything between $29.99 and $49.99, you get an unlimited download pass to their games library. In case you think that it is a small library, it is not. There are well over hundreds to thousands of exciting downloadable iPod games.
