This is an N-Gage version of the game. In general it follows the same rules as a console release: it's an American football "simulator" where you can choose a team from a vast roster corresponding with 2003 season, pick strategies from a number of offensive and defensive plays and then command your players on the field. Also you can take a look at some of the historical teams and games. But there are a few differences.
The first and most obvious one is graphics - the N-Gage game has a totally different graphical engine: instead of a fully 3D world, only the field is polygonal and sprites are used for the players models, thus making it more close to the sports games of the 90s. Secondly, Dynasty mode that lets you customize the team, build programs and recruit new members is absent, instead there are only quick play and season modes. Also, there's a one-on-one Bluetooth multiplayer and a bowl game called Nokia Sugar Bowl National Championship.
MotoGP is a motorcycle racing game, based on PC and console series by THQ and international championship of the same name. There are several licensed real world teams with fifteen different riders and several motorcycles to choose from. Some are not available from the beginning and have to be unlocked by completing courses. There are totally seven of them, advertised as based on real circuits around the world.
Included game modes are Grand Prix, time trials, single races and, exclusively for N-Gage wireless multiplayer for up to four players using Bluetooth connection. Unlike earlier MotoGP for GBA, this one runs in full 3D, including both environment and bikes. The lap records could've been uploaded to the N-Gage Arena service and shared online.
Another unique feature to this particular version is a simple track editor, where you can construct new racing stages from scratch, using top-down view and various turns. Those custom tracks could be later accessed in the single race mode.
You get to race in locations around the world, over 60 stages in eight different countries. Battle your way towards winning the championship. You can choose from many real life car models, and tune them up to match the conditions. The game realistically simulates all road types, weather conditions, and the physics of car handling. The locations and the cars are all real.
Two mobile game versions of this game were created, a N-Gage title developed by Ideaworks3D and a J2ME title developed by IOMO and published by Digital Bridges. The N-Gage version reused stages from Colin McRae Rally 2.0.
Civilization for N-Gage is a handheld version of a popular strategy series. However, it's not a port of any existing episodes, but a separate entry based on the rules of the second and the third games.

Unlike most of other N-Gage titles, there are no multiplayer features in Civilization.
Catan is a handheld implementation of a board game Settlers of Catan. There is a flat board with the game world divided on a number of hexagons. The goal of the game is to reach ten Victory points that are earned by having settlements, point cards and some other conditions, however there could be other goals in this version. Every turn players can either build roads, settlements and cities or expand onto over territories, which also produce different resources needed for construction. Resources could be either purchased for Settlement cards or traded with other players.
The N-Gage version, besides the traditional board game rules, also features a multi-stage tournament and a quest-mode with a number of different objectives, like building the longest road or having the largest army, by the end of the game, or reaching ten points under a certain amount of turns.

The Roots: Gates of Chaos is an action role playing game set in a fantasy world. It is designed much like Diablo or many more similar ARPGs: there's a small hub, a peaceful town, and several pathways leading to the "wilderness" locations, where you encounter monsters and go to fulfill quests.
In town you could shop, travel to a different location (there are five towns in The Roots), learn some local news, get quests or enter a gladiator arena. The tasks you can get are mostly kill or fetch quests typical for many ARPGs and MMORPGs that can provide you with valuable items in case you succeed and also do it before a deadline, as all of them are time-limited.
To add interest and replayability there is a randomly generated loot system, such as also in many more RPGs. The items you get come with different stats, that could improve your character's primary abilities, like strength or agility, add damage or raise the defenses and magical resistance. The rarer the item the more modifiers and higher they are, but also suc
