Family Gamer (PC)
Here's what I drew with my mouse after playing Bookworm Adventures. I hope you like my video game reviews that are not hand drawn - but written one mouse stroke at a time.
Bookworm Adventures was a very pleasant surprise. Like Math Blaster or Mario Teaches Typing before it, Bookworm Adventures uses one genre to support and emphasize the learning aspect of the game. In this case we see a combination of Fantasy RPG and Boggle. The result is a very powerful learning tool.
Unfortunately, I'm already an adept wordsmith, so the strategic aspect of the game was lost on me. Using health potions and gaining new abilities after leveling up are just two of my favorite things to do in video games, but this is more of a training wheels version... which will be perfect for turning my children into gamer addicts like me.

"My mouse drawn reviews are my gut reaction to whatever game I've just played, and, as a service to the intelligent reader, it will be dispensed with as many pictures and as few words as I can manage."
Here are the games I've been playing recently:

With so many different perspectives it can be hard to know where to start - a little like walking into a crowded pub. Sorry about that. But so far we've not found a way to streamline our review output - there's basically too much of it. So, rather than dilute things for newcomers we have decided to live with the hubbub while helping new readers find the columnists they will enjoy. |
