Game Description
Bookworm Deluxe is the Word Game for Everyone!
In Bookworm Deluxe, it's up to you to click on adjacent letters in order to form words that can be "chomped" by the Lex the bookworm. But, If you use too many small words, burning tiles will appear and you must clear them before they hit bottom or the whole library burns down and your game is over.
A Great Way to Strengthen the Entire Family's Vocabulary!
This game is educational for the young and young and heart. Form words you never even knew existed and learn the spelling and definitions of rarely heard English words.
The longer the words, or more obscure the letters used in the words, the more points for you.
Get Addicted to Words!
In this "can't-turn-it-off" game, your brain goes into overdrive. It takes focus to see words upside-down, backwards, sideways, diagonal and any combination in between.
It's hard to stop playing once you start, but if you have to the game will save your progress automatically and you can return to your game with ease.
Two Game Modes Give You Options
There is the Classic Game, which provides a more relaxing gaming experience and also the Action Game option. In Action Game mode, burning tiles are dropped into the grid at an alarming pace and will burn through letters without any warning.
Lex is There to Help
Lex the Bookworm will make green tiles appear randomly. Using these tiles increases your word score.
If you make words using 5 or more letters, you earn a gold tile. Use the gold tile and multiply your bonus points even more.
Become Wise With Words and Move Your Way Up!
You can earn ranks and titles such as clerk, scribe, librarian and editor. The Hall of Fame feature will record your Top Scores, Best Words and Longest Words.

I really appreciate this educational word game. It helps a lot for me & my kids in forming words, also their minds really work to easily see and form words from it especially if the burning tiles are coming. I saw my kids ability to identify and form words as fast as they can improve. Keep it up!!!

It’s fun filled and educational game which can improve your word making ability and presence of mind. You need to have control otherwise you may get addicted to this game. But it’s a really refreshing and good time when you are bored or you are upset. Your mind will be cool after playing it. I don’t play any electronics or net games but this one is really nice, I play to refresh myself…try it you will not regret…and enjoy.

I got addicted to playing bookworm while on a 5 hour Delta flight. I must have played it for 4 hours. The object is to get the longest words possible, but the 3 letter words work in a pinch too. This game increases your vocabulary and is a lot of good, clean fun!

Bookworm Deluxe Player Comments
- "The full version is well worth every penny and more! I get much more pleasure playing bookworm than I do any of the video games that I have ever rented. Bookworm is excellent for children, my grandchild is totally engrossed with learning to spell new and different words. It is such a clean environment for a child as opposed to those violent video games. Go for it!" - Terrie Crawford from Renick, West Virginia, 5/5 stars
- "Since we started playing this game, my hubbie's spelling has improved greatly. The perfect way to improve your spelling and vocabulary whilst having a lot of fun. We all crowd around the PC and help him with words." - Charmian from Cape Town, South Africa, 5/5 stars
- "I love playing Bookworm because it gives me a chance to hone up on my vocabulary skills before playing Scrabble with my husband (who thinks he knows everything). It has also helped me with expanding my vocabulary when it comes to writing papers for my college classes. It keeps the words that we know but have forgotten, close to the front of the mental file cabinet so I can remember them better when typing my papers. It's not difficult to download or use and even my grown children come over to play it when I'm not home!" - "Cindi Jordan from Rock Hill, SC USA, 5/5 stars
- I am over 30 and a freelance writer. My writing friends all suggest word games to build your spelling skills. This game does just that. Also, I played with my five year old on my lap and she is just learning her alphabet and spelling words. She loved helping me and the little worm spell and win!" - Teresa from Puyallup, WA USA, 5/5 stars
