Haiku Journey Review
The letters form words,
and give all their points to you.
It is wonderful!
Haiku, a major form of Japanese poetry, is comprised of 17 syllables, in its English-language adaptation, divided across three metrical units of five, seven and five. The perfect vehicle for portraying a singular moment in time, it also serves well as the basis for word-crafting fun.
Word Spiral Review
Want to improve your vocabulary while sneaking in a little rest and relaxation by sunny seaside shores? Drop that best-selling novel, reclaim those frequent flier miles and save yourself the trouble of conning the boss into awarding you some long-overdue vacation time. Communications skills-building brainteaser Word Spiral actually lets you accomplish these goals without breaking a sweat, or having to scrounge at the last minute for a hotel in the Florida Keys.
Haiku Journey Preview
Haiku - a well-aged form of Japanese poetry comprised of short, but sweet three-line stanzas highlighting topics including nature and spiritualism - might not seem like the most intuitive subject to base an engaging videogame on.
But word-building puzzler Haiku Journey, coming soon from 7 Wonders of the Ancient World creator Hot Lava and publisher MumboJumbo (known for smash hits like Luxor 2), proves initial appearances can be deceiving.

SandScript Review
Many of you likely have fond memories playing Hangman as a kid, be it playing against a friend during a boring day at school or doodling on an airplane napkin with a sibling to stay entertained on long flights (before laptops, iPods and portable DVD players!).
Shangri La Deluxe Review
When I think of Shangri La, I envision a lush, tranquil paradise, a mystical Himalayan utopia isolated from the outside world. No worries, no pressures, an extended "retirement" with plenty of time to relax!
Shangri La, from Zylom, delivers a refreshing escape to a gorgeous realm of flourishing panoramas and soothing melodies. But, the experience, for some, may not be too relaxing.
