I love word games. Scrabble, Hangman, Boggle . . . I have a killer Hangman word! These are the kind of games that make you think and you can play for hours - well, I can. Especially when I was underway on a submarine. But I digress! Astraware has informed me of a new release that will be forthcoming:

"We’re going to release a new word game, Super Wild Wild Words in the next few weeks. The game is the handheld version of the online and PC game from GameHouse."

They have provided a couple of vga screen shots for your enticement! Looks good!

No, no, no....focus, mister!

This does look seriously distracting, tho! I love word games, and I love astraware- this should be good! ~Anne

According to Pocketgamer this game is out in demo...
I've tried it- pretty cool game. Wish it would go a little faster- but love the combined hangman/wordsearch feel to it. Definately a game with potential!

Anyway- have fun!
