Well hello again everyone! ;) As promised here's another review for today - this time, it's another game. I'd have had my review in a lot earlier, if I hadn't become so addicted and played for far too long. :) That's one of the dangers of reviewing games. :) Distributors: Merscom LLC; Gameel Entertainment.

Swan reporting in for today ! ;) Today’s review covers the pinnacle of all word games. In fact, by buying this one word game, you’ll receive twenty-five different games in one - each with their own levels! It's so extensive, that I've had to play with it for days in order to test it out efficiently. Some... Read Full Story

Good morning everyone! As an enthusiast of puzzle games, I thought I'd start my first review with a Mahjong game from Double Games - a software house gathering all types of games under its umbrella.

Good morning everyone, It occurred to me that we haven't had a game in a while, so I've chosen Puzzle Mania for you today. The annoying thing about having to do manual jigsaw puzzles, is that you have to keep all the pieces laid out once you've begun and hope to high heavens that no-one else in the house jogs it off the table by mistake. Personally, I used to value my puzzles so much, that I used to keep a part completed jigsaw puzzle under my bed for protection when I wasn't using it... Read Full Story

. Hello again gamers! Yes it's your day again today, and there's a surprise waiting for you if you read today's review! The genre is inlay, but with a slight twist from the normal kind of game play to be expected. Personally I tend to fall asleep when playing this kind of game, but I also know gamers who absolutely love it , finding it relaxing rather than a visual lullaby - so it's all going to come down to personal preference. The very first inlay game I ever played, was called Shape... Read Full Story

. Good morning everyone! A strategy game takes the spotlight today, transforming you into the role of a brave hero who must save the 'Ancient Kingdom' from a plethora of baddies . As the hero, you must protect your castle and the people within from being captured. So are you up to it? ;) As added protection you build beautiful towers and swiftly cast spells. As expected, you also get bonuses for each kill, (how mercenary! ;) and then another one at the end of each attack. Developer: Voodoo... Read Full Story

. Good morning everyone! This will be a welcome review not only to those that enjoy games, but to players everywhere who thrive on challenging their minds with puzzle games. Interestingly and in general, compared to games which incorporate killing (figuratively speaking!) and blowing things up, puzzle games would definitely not rate as an equal in popularity. Is this a statement of the times? As a society, have we become so consumed with games providing instant gratification that makes our... Read Full Story

Not just a good morning, but a happy morning to you all! ;) You have no idea how playing games in the morning before work can cheer you up, as long as you can exercise self control and still get to work on time. ;) Then again, I work from home, so no biggie for me! This collection of games is a little misleading by its title as none of them are 'board games' as we know the... Read Full Story
