Bookworm Adventures 2 Review

The simple written word can hold a surprising amount of power, but who would have thought stringing together chains of letters could harness enough mojo to best a mighty serpent beast or an undead kung-fu warrior? Casual gaming powerhouse PopCap Games brilliantly melded wordsmithery and light-hearted RPG combat in 2007's Bookworm Adventures. With another round of literary combat freshly queued up, the second volume is every bit as quirky and obsession-forming as the original.

Word Riot Deluxe Review

Although an Internet-only diversion (and Pogo.com exclusive at that), fans of popular TV game shows can't help but be drawn to Word Riot Deluxe. Despite being strictly multiplayer endeavor - and one that's built around a fairly limited rule set, no less - there's much to like about the skillfully-presented title, which takes the form of a virtual primetime broadcast.

Charlotte's Web: Word Rescue Review

E. B. White's book about the unlikely friendship between Charlotte the spider and Wilbur the pig is one of the most beloved children's novels of all time, and also serves as the theme of the latest word game from MumboJumbo.
Just as Charlotte wove words into her web to try and save Wilbur from ending up as a tender pork chop on someone's dinner plate, the goal of Charlotte's Web: Word Rescue is to weave words into your own web to score points and earn different coloured ribbons.
