Addicting for word gamers....

This is a great game if you love word games.. I had it for my GBA and bought it for my PC too. It is very addicting...good for all ages.. my elementary school age girls can play it too. Concept of connecting tiles to form words similar to boggle, but the tiles dissapear when you use them for a word leaving the other tiles to fall. Be careful,if the red fire tiles reach the bottom you burn the worm! bonus tiles and words for extra points. Fun fun fun..It is a must have for anyone who loves word games...

Hate to Spell

I have always been a horriable speller (first one to lose at spelling bees in school) when my parents came to visit they brought this game and the 1st thing I thought was "A spelling game kill me now, I think I'll go play Halo instead" but after a few minutes of watching them play I was yelling out words too spell and when I found the bonus word and got them a blue diamond I was addicted!! We ended up play for 3 hours that night

If anything it will help you improve your spelling and it's something you can play with your KIDS!!

I have spent hours playing this game. It really expands your vocabulary. Makes you think and challenges you. I travel, so I always have it handy.
Very easy to navigate the game and the graphics and sound is great. I would recommend this game to anyone.

Gets real tough after Level 15 or so...

I've been playing this game for about two weeks and am at least semi-addicted. Once I got an 8 letter word and twice I got to Level 25, although my average is at around Level 12. I downloaded Bookworm Adventures, but this seems aimed more toward the schoolyard crowd. Anyway, I'll keep playing,but I'd have liked some hint as to how many levels there are. Thank you!

WORD-RECOGNITION FUN!!

This is a excellent educational tool for preschoolers and adults wishing to hone their vocabulary - and a great TV-alternative.

Words have to be recognized and formed from a wall of letters that get refreshed as you progress. Target-words offer extra points whereas, repeatedly forming easy small words is "punished" with the appearance of burning letter-tiles that, if let to reach the bottom, end the game.

This is a perfect example of what has come to be known as Casual Gaming. It would be a good idea to download the 60-min trial version from a site, such as REFLEXIVE (you can Google it), and decide for yourself whether this is indeed your cup of tea.

Anybody can make a good game that will run only on a super-computer. This is an example of pure programming genius!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Initially Addictive

When you first start, this game can be very addictive especially in the Action Game (timed). However, if you're a real word fanatic, after several weeks you'll notice that some of the accepted words are not real words. They don't exist in even the Oxford Dictionary, while others are not only arcane, but are from or in Old High German or Scottish, and I even found one that was Icelandic.

While I'm not that much of a purist, you can rack up 7 million points based upon words that won't even come up in the New York Times Sunday crossword puzzle! (By the way, the maximum score according to the folks at PopGames is 3 billion. You can't do that in the timed mode without getting into everything from slang to abbreviations to a great deal of luck.)

Bookworm Deluxe is still fun, but I do wish they had gone "legit" (which is a word according to the makers, but an abbreviated one or slang according to everyone else. Still, it would make a great gift for that someone who loves screwing around with words.

Corrupt cds

We ordered this game because we played the demo and it is very fun and educational but the cd that was sent was corrupt and had nothing copied on it. We sent it back to amazon and they quickly sent another cd. That one was the same way...no data at all. Amazon refunded our money but it is real diappointing not to have this game.
