Gem tiles appear as rewards for making long words and grant bonus points if used. Bookworm is a game for word lovers one that challenges the vocabulary and the eye. Spotting an impressive word on the staggered board of tiles gives a great feeling of achievement. If you can't find a word you can gamble and rearrange the tiles but be warned: this also spawns a flood of burning tiles which can make things even worse.
If you just want to mess around with some words and not have to deal with the time limit it's also possible to play in untimed mode. The charming game mascot Lex appeared in later sequels that combined word play with RPG-style battles.
If you pride yourself on your vocabulary or just love a good word puzzle Bookworm is a great way to pass some time. It doesn't have too much variety in its gameplay but the basic premise is enough to keep you coming back. Link letters and create words to feed the hungry, hungry Bookworm! Players guide Lex the Bookworm voiced by Chief Creative Officer of PopCap, Jason Kapalka through a number of stages, battling creatures along the way which are largely based on Greek Mythology, tales from Arabian Nights and Gothic fiction, while the foes in the game's sequel are based on Fairy tales, Chinese mythology and Science fiction.
Each battle consists of Lex squaring off against a given foe. Both Lex and his adversary have health meters represented by a number of hearts , which, when depleted, signal defeat. However, unlike more traditional role-playing games where players might injure their opponents with arms or magic, enemies in Bookworm Adventures are damaged by forming words.
As in the original Bookworm, words are formed from a grid of available letters, although unlike the original, the letters used to form the words need not be adjacent to one another. The longer the word which is formed, the more damage is done to opponents. Similarly, words generated using letters which are less common do more damage than those using only common letters. Each turn, players can form a single word, while enemies use one of their available attacks to injure Lex, heal themselves, or otherwise make the battle more difficult.
If victorious, Lex automatically recovers all of his health between battles; however, there are certain stages called Survival Battles still called boss battles in the first game where Lex will not be healed between enemies. Bookworm Adventures Free Download.
After a certain number of battles are won, a boss of increased difficulty is encountered. If players defeat the boss, they complete the stage and are rewarded with a treasure item. Treasures provide special abilities to Lex, such as a reduction in damage inflicted to him, or more damage generated from words containing certain letters. In some cases, rather than receiving a new item, an existing item is upgraded.
After the player has accumulated more than three items, Lex must then choose which three items to bring along on later chapters. In the sequel, the player can also be awarded a companion, which gives a beneficial effect every four turns. There are 3 game modes in the first game.
