Customer Reviews
Made - up Words
Just got this game from
Amazon. Was real excited to play it because I love word games. But,
what's up with these games? Seems to me the computer you challenge is
making up words! Some of the words there is no way they are in the
dictionary! If you have to challenge the computer, at least the words
should exist in the English language! It's not a fair game when the
words are not in the dictionary. I know, I wrote them down and looked
them up. It's ridiculous! kyd for example, come on, you can't use this!
These games sucked, if only because the words didn't make sense. Also, I
have to agree with the other opinion in that it is terrible not to be
able to direct type in words and have to click on each single letter. It
slows you down like crazy. If it didn't cost so much for return
shipping I would get my money back! This product is not worth it!
Upwords and Hangman are OK
I've played these games a few
times on my laptop. Upwords can be challenging, Hangman was no problem
for me most of time. Word Hunter was a nice surprise as well. As others
have said, the big disappointmemt here is Boggle. Clicking on and
carrying letters is time consuming, and you're racing against the clock.
I prefer the version of Boggle where you can type in your words. Other
than that, this is a fun collection of word games that could help to
teach younger people some new words.
The
Other 3 Games are BETTER than the Boggle
The Boggle game slows one
down in playing a timed game. You have to click, drag mouse over the
letters and release to spell a word. Most newer versions of Boggle, you
can just type the words from your keyboard. If you don't hold the click
just so, or your fingers slip; it drops the letter and you have to
re-click and drag. It's a pain. However, that being said; the other
three games are fun...Word Hunter is my favorite...very challenging. I
ended up downloading another version of Boggle, from Amazon, which
allows typing of the words. MUCH better and FASTER; love it. The other
annoying thing is, before it lets you play and again after you finish:
You have to watch a whole list of credits scroll the screen, with no way
of overriding it. I would ONLY recommend this game if you are
interested in the other 3 games and not the Boggle.
