Two of this week's free iPhone games from the OpenFeint social gaming network include Crazy Test, a hilarious WarioWare clone, and Doodle Dash, a cute gem collection game with hand-drawn graphics.

Both games are still available for free at the time of this writing, so strike quickly, iPhone owners.

Crazy Test reminds of the Nintendo DS mini-game classic, WarioWare

Crazy Test is a WarioWare clone for the iPhone, providing a large collection of hilarious and taste-questionable mini-games.  The game features two modes.  In Test Mode, the gamer completes each mini-game in an established order, racking up extra points for completing the mini-game as quickly as possible.

Arcade Mode is pretty much the same as Test Mode, except that the mini-games are chosen by random.  Crazy Test effectively uses the iPhone's interface features, including the accelerometer and touchscreen to perform the various tasks necessary to complete each mini-game.

Crazy Test is a must download for iPhone-owning WarioWare fans.

Doodle Dash charms with its hand-drawn graphics

Doodle Dash is a simple gem collection game that features charming hand-drawn graphics.  The game's simple premise features "Dash" moving through a gem-filled landscape, collecting those gems and earning points.

The gamer uses the iPhone accelerometer to steer back and forth, collecting gems and avoiding the various baddies which take a life when touched.  It's a simple game, but perfect for a quick iPhone gaming break.

Both games fully support OpenFeint, with leaderboards and a collection of achievements.

Columbus mobile gamers interested in iPhone gaming, merely need to head to either local Apple Store, at Easton or Polaris, to check out an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch.
