Scrabble Journey Review
We've got to applaud developer Republic of Fun's latest effort Scrabble Journey: It cleverly takes the classic tabletop favorite and attempts to marry it with original adventure game elements. Unfortunately, although the title does offer some challenge and occasional standout moments, like the company's other recent effort Merv Griffin's Crosswords, a lackluster presentation and largely forgettable play bar the outing from greatness.
Merv Griffin's Crosswords Review
For those who don't know, according to Wikipedia, Mervyn Edward "Merv" Griffin, Jr. was an "American talk show host, game show host, entertainer, television personality and raconteur." He also happens to be the creator of Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy and several other noteworthy TV programs, including the one on which this shallow and somewhat disappointing new word game for desktop PCs is based. Bummer!
