A fairly decent game that basically serves as a Bookworm Adventures clone but with a lot of aspects missing that made the inspiration great. There's pretty much no story line, enemies are used multiple times instead of only once, and the theming isn't that strong per area. A big system change in this is the upgrade system, which in turn means effective playing doesn't always mean you can beat a level since you might just not have enough upgrades. There's also less letters here than in bookworm so the spelling aspect is less leaning towards impressive words.

For what it is the game is still mostly decent, but I think the attempt to pull off the form doesn't truly work that well.

Surprisingly fun considering it's a word game at its core. I really enjoyed how they combined what is essentially a spin on Scrabble with a side scrolling RPG. It's also a great game to play with someone by your side.

Mehr oder weniger Scrabble mit RPG-Anleihen und ein kurzweiliges, nettes Spiel, das ideal für kleine Pausen ist. Ein wenig mehr Abwechslung hätte ich mir manchmal aber schon gewünscht. Gegen Ende wird es ziemlich fordernd, falls man alle Sterne haben möchte. Dazu ziemlich addicting.

This is basically "scrabble" mixed with light RPG mechanics that make the game very interesting and invite the player to actually use different strategies depending on the type of level and enemies. You can equip/level-up different types of weapons, book spells, potions, etc. that can aid you in different ways depending on the level's objectives and enemies.

This game is very fun and perfectly suited for quick pick-up-and-play sessions. The only big con I was able to find so far is that the game can become quite grindy as you progress and get to the advanced levels.

It's a fun word based game. It only gets as fun as making word does though.

Bookworm Adventures with less story. But it has it's own charm, and it's just as good in my opinion. It is definitely easier, but it's still a solid word game.
