Review:

I love puzzles and now that the doctors say they can help preventing Alzheimer’s, I am all for it (although my wife tells me it is too late). So, I am always looking for new and puzzling puzzles (sorry) to prevent my mind from running on idle.

I tried Weave Words with great expectations. The idea behind it is a sort of blending of several other games together: find the words that are in the hexagonal soup of letters by weaving (connecting) each of its letters. The words can be stuff from home and garden, names of movies, books etc. - you can choose the categories to be included.

The screens and functionality were reasonably well designed for the objective and price, but there is just one problem – let me try to put it in nice words: The game is just... B O R I N G !

If you were looking for something exciting to keep your mind in high-rev, look elsewhere. To give you a frame of reference, watching C-Span will pump twice the adrenalin in your system than this game.

Weave Words should be sold at pharmacies as a sleeping aid, requiring prescription from a doctor. So, play it at your own risk, and be careful not to bang your head against the screen or the keyboard.

Conclusion:

If you want to be challenged and get excited, pick a fight with your mother-in-law instead. If you don't have one, go play hangman, crossword, or sudoku.
