Mightier than the Sword |  |
Bookworm Adventures Deluxe is a wonderfully addictive little bit of linguaphilia. Each stage is a series of monster battles with a boss battle at the end, somewhat reminiscent of an old-school CRPG. The thing is, instead of just attacking with a sword or something, you spell words: the more difficult the word, the more damage you deal. There are fun little modifiers, like Power-Up Potions and the Bow of Zyx (which increases your damage for any words containing Z, Y, or X), and your enemies have all kinds of special abilities to use against you. All in all, it’s a fun, relaxing, mentally stimulating little word game.
