PictoWords Review
Although we don't see as many word games as we see hidden object or match-three, they're still among some of the most popular games with casual gamers. Yet strangely enough, there's a real gap in new word game concepts, with few daring to venture beyond the framework of Boggle. If you've already played most of the best, you might be feeling a bit... bored. Well, PictoWords takes up the challenges and puts forth something different in the word game genre.
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.
Brainiversity Review
Most of us know that exercise and wholesome foods are endemic to a healthy lifestyle, so staying physically fit is part of our routine. But what about our mental skills? Like junk food for our brains, fun diversions like sitcoms and comic books, and yes even games, might provide delicious entertainment, but they don't always stimulate our intellects. Brainiversity, a new game from Red Sprite Studios, aims to change that.
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.
Bookworm Adventures Deluxe Review
With such celebrated puzzlers as Bejeweled, Zuma, Inasaniquarium, Chuzzle and Feeding Frenzy 2, PopCap has more than earned its reputation as a trusted casual games publisher.
Guess what? The company has done it again with its latest game: Bookworm Adventures Deluxe.
Babel Deluxe Review
According to the biblical tale, people built the Tower of Babel because they wanted to reach up to the heavens. As the tower stretched higher and higher, God sensed that the builders were becoming too cheeky for their own good and threw a wrench into the works by making it so that each person spoke a different language. Since the builders were now unable to communicate with each other, the tower could never be completed.
Fast forward to the 21st century and you, too, can attempt to construct your own mighty tower in Babel Deluxe - in the form of a new word puzzle game.
