Good, with a few problems.
Overall, it's a great game, but I noticed words missing from the dictionary in the few rounds I played (such as fired). The sound effects are good, but the music gets a bit repetitive... And it wouldn't hurt having the guy say more.
The major problem I had, though, was that I had a couple rounds where a majority of the letters were the same, or all the vowels were clumped together, thus making it very difficult to make any words.
Highly polished yet MAJORLY incomplete.
The Boggle-type games are pretty common, but this game definitely has the potential to be one of the better ones of its kind. Everything about this game is done professionally, despite its paltry word list. PLEASE, PLEASE!!! Finish this game.
-- GRAPHICS/STYLE ---------
Everything is nicely drawn. MUCH better looking than other boggle games I've seen. Major style points; simple yet complex... whatever, I like it!
-- SOUND ------------------
All the tracks are pretty good and goes well with the game. All the music, sfx, and voices are of top quality.
-- INTERACTIVITY -----------
I don't mind clicking on the letters so much, tho I wouldn't mind being able to type the letters instead. I would also like indicators (like arrows) that show the order of the selected letters; would make it easier to tell if you misspelled a word. An Undo Letter option would be nice. The dictionary is missing MANY words, including plural and past tense words.
I wouldn't call the word list "paltry". There are nearly 40,000 words that are available. I did mention in the author comments that some plurals were missing, as well as some tenses of verbs... I'll try and get those updated at some point. Glad you enjoyed the game, otherwise!
well well
All around cool, but maybe you could get more diverse loops :o They'll all super-mellow, nothing nice and heavy for the people who like things nice and heavy.
Also, make the score count faster or make the "play again" button appear faster at the end, because its damn boring waiting for it to count up to 800 or whatever.
its so close to perfect.
this game was really cool. great graphics great sound just about great everything. but. this is opinion so don't take offense. im not the biggest word game fan. but when it comest to word games this is... the cream of the crop. contradicting the other reviews i actually liked the main character lol. without him the game wouldn't be as good. he certainly adds a spice to it. ok anyway keep on making flash! i voted five because you worked so hard. so don't take offense to this review
Great job.. few changes
This is a great game, however for it to be a word game... it should have all words in recognized. I noticed on several occasions that a word would be recognized, however its plural counterpart wouldn't be. example would be "can" and "cans" and many more like it. I think the more words you add to be recognized, the better this game will be. Right now its frustrating to have the game reject a perfectly legitimate word. Kinda ruins the fun of it. Other than that, I enjoyed the graphics, music selections, voice-overs, and flow of the game. The dictionary just needs to be expanded some.
