Just got a new Macbook and was wondering what games are the best for playing on a notebook with the trackpad while out and about? (OSX not through Windows)

I thought point and click games would be good but can't think of any recent ones.

A Vampire Story and Jack Keane just came out recently in the p&c adventure department. Also numerous Windows adventure games work via Crossover or VMWare Fusion.

Fable is useless without a mouse.

Puzzle games are good, I have Peggle Nights ( http://www.popcap.co...c/peggle-nights ) and Puzzle Quest ( http://www.gametreeo...ng/PuzzleQuest/ ) on mine and can also recommend World of Goo ( http://www.gametreeo...y/world-of-goo/ ). I also have HoMMV which works great with a trackpad: http://www.freeverse...s/game/?id=6002

Oh also forgot I have Civ 4 and ScummVM which I play without a mouse: http://scummvm.org/

Neverwinter Nights works just fine with the track pad. Been a favorite game on the go of mine for a long time. Play for a bit, save the game, repeat.
