I recently did a review of Popcap’s Bookworm and when I did I was contacted by 99Games to do a review of WordsWorth, so I figured what the heck.
Wordsworth isn’t really graphically impressive. In fact the graphics looks like something I might have been able to do with a digital drawing pad and Photoshop and I’m not a very good artist when it comes to drawing. I would say the graphics are mostly forgettable and the color scheme isn’t something that brings to mind hours of enjoyment and high energy gameplay. Of course you’re just stringing letters together to make words, so there’s not really any high energy level is there?
Wordsworth instead focused on the options set. Aside from being able to turn the sound and music on and off you have a pretty decent list of variables you can control including: minimum word length, grid size, scramble per level, timer delay and yes, even which word list (TWL, SOWPODS, Enable) you would like to use.
