Literate Invertebrate

Thanks to my brother-in-law I am now addicted to another online game.

This past weekend Nik introduced me to Bookworm, a game that involves linking lettered tiles to make words.  The goal is to make as many words as you can: the longer the better.  As you play, you are rewarded with bonus tiles worth more points.  However as an extra challenge you must eliminate burning tiles.  If these flaming tiles reach the bottom of the screen, you burn the library down and lose the game.

What I like about this game is its simplicity and its challenge.  I like a little intelligence sometimes in my games.

Plus that little worm is so cute!
