Bookworm Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love Bookworm online, as well as the deluxe version for PC and Mac, so I was very excited to try it on my DS, since I can take it anywhere.I am thrilled with it!Everything you love about Bookworm is here, along with a few extra fun things.

Create words from the adjacent tiles to clear them from the board and earn points and books to put on shelves in your library.As you earn books and fill the shelves, you fill up and complete rooms in your library.Each room has a different theme and you get a little bonus when each is finished.As you complete more rooms, your library expands.You can visit the rooms on your map and see what you have accomplished!

My favorite new and challenging feature is collecting books and words.There are twenty books, each containing twelve words.When you create a word in one of the books, the book is unlocked and you can see the rest of the words needed to complete the book.For example, I unlocked the book "Insects" by making the word "ant".To complete the book I need to create "bee, wasp, roach, ladybug", etc.This is not as easy as it seems!!There are many fun collections to complete, and while I haven't finished a book yet, I imagine there will be a fun bonus when I do!Books are easily accessible from the main screen so you can check to see which books still needs words, and what words are needed.

My only teeny tiny complaint with this game is barely a blip on the radar, however I'm just a slight bit annoyed that when clearing tiles an extra tap is required after the word is finished.On the computer version, holding the mouse button while making words, and then just releasing it will clear the word.While holding the stylus to make the word on the DS, it has to be lifted and then tapped at the end of the word.Very picky, but it is what it is.

There is not a left-handed option on this game that I can find.That seems an obvious necessity, but for some reason was not included in this version.

Overall this game is fantastic, I am completely addicted!!

Product Description:
A high-energy word puzzle game hosted by Lex the bookworm, Bookworm for DS/DSi challenges players use their vocabulary to create words from a play area of cascading individual letters. Time is of the essence though, as the play area contains red glowing letter tiles, that if unused will "burn down" the player's library if they reach the bottom of the screen, ending the game. The DS/DSi version of Bookworm contains the the same addictive action gamers have craved since the game appeared for PC, but also includes improvements like a wireless multiplayer mode and unlimited levels.
