A popular preload on BlackBerry, and Popcop favourite online, Bookworm, has wriggled over to the iPhone App Store. The game is simple enough: find words in a mess of lettered tiles, use up firey tiles before they burn their way to the bottom, and try to work in bonus tiles for big points. As a wordy guy, I can vouch for the addictiveness of this game and encourage y’all to give it a shot. The iPhone version has a few unique features:
* Shake to scramble letters: Simply shake your iPhone or iPod touch to re-scramble the letters.
* All new bonus bookshelf: Discover books filled with bonus words and try to complete the collection.
* Track your progress: Just turn your phone sideways for a quick, detailed view of your word history and bonus bookshelf status.
* A word collectors dream: Build your stats and show off all the best words you’ve spelled!
It’s a sweet game, and a solid time-waster – yours for $4.99.
