DS #4622: Bookworm (USA)

[GeekyGuy]

Is this another of those games IGN has grossly over-rated?

Will try, but...those guys.

While their rating might have been a little much for a game that is a bit this bare bones, somehow Bookworm fights through the odds and deserves that rating. It's an incredibly fun word puzzle game.

I once spent an entire term playing it in my college's computer lab instead of going to US History. Best C- I ever got.

I'm hoping that they released Bookworm Adventures next. It's more fun than the original Bookworm because it has some RPG-like elements in it.

It doesn't work on Cyclo 1.56B6? My life is so empty!!

yes sorry, not working on cyclo 1.56b6 and acekard 2i with AKAIO 1.5.1 and latest loader

so much for "stealth mode" eh?

 

[pitoui]

Ahh no way... been waiting for this game to come out for ages.

Tried on AK2i with AKAIO and it gets stuck on the "mobi clip" screen. Also tried on SuperCard One and gives me black screens. Was going to try on my TTDS but it seems that also does not work.

Seems like I will be waiting impatiently for a patch

 

[haflore]

Yeah, I was really hoping Stealth Mode would work out for this one.

 

[Fun_Zephyr]

Is stealth mode auto activated for new games or do you have to hold START or the like when loading the game to put it into stealth mode?

 

[haflore]

Automatic, but it doesn't seem to help with this one.

 

[cephalopoid]

Saw this dumped ages ago with XXXX number . . . Could the AP on this $20 title be tougher than Zelda?
Hmmm...

Anyway, I'm waiting for crack.

Thanks!

I do love this game... I spelled boutique today on the GBA version. *proud*

 

[kingsanto]

Playing the retail cart. This game is super addictive.

 

[kalmis]

Never heard of this game before. Did some reading on the GBA version and cant really understand why it is so addicting/attracting. Anyway will need to give this a try.

 

[shakirmoledina]

is it truly AP or a bad dump since there were some games tht had this problem so better wait and check out the actual situation
i do remember a younger member of my family playing this game and i believe its a very interesting game since u have to connect letters to make words (from the letters available)

 

[magicksun]

i think this game whorld bee good in spanish

 

[elton]

Started this game with the GBA and got totally hooked.

Bought the PC version when I saw it in the cheap bin and have not looked back. It's a great game. It could be improved by extending the dictionary to explain the meaning of all worlds but that's just being picky.

It will be great once someone figures how to get it onto M3 and other carts.

what do you do in this?

 

[Raika]

what do you do in this?
From Gamefaqs:
QUOTESpell F-U-N on the run in an all-new Bookworm for the Nintendo DS! Have an appetite for words? Then join Lex the Bookworm in PopCap's hit word-puzzle game for the Nintendo DS. Link letter tiles left, right, up and down to spell words to keep Lex sated and unearth a vast library. Spell words to fill your bookshelves, unlock 20 themed folios, and build out 18 unique library rooms. Boost your score using Word of the Day and bonus words. But watch out for burning letters - they could spell disaster for you and Lex!

[regnad]

Been dumped finally. Now all these guys will be happy

Or not, it seems.

Anybody gotten this thing to run on EZ-F Vi yet?

It is most definitely not a bad dump. That is, unless they've found a way to make a game that is undumpable by the NDS Backup Tool. If that were the case, you'd think they'd be using this new method on all of their releases and we'd all be fucked.
