Pros:
I enjoy playing word games from time to time and I am not that smart. This game takes my favorite things, crawling around in dungeons, leveling up, bonuses and word games and seems to mash them together pretty good. I like the boss fights too!
Cons:
There is a few downsides to this game as it does seem a little clunky at first. As mentioned, it is pretty dated. I also think the timer you are given is kinda short and once you die there is no coming back. I believe you should be allowed to have three lives or something like in other games.
Review:

I half remember playing this game in the past, so I downloaded it and was excited to see it was the same game. Sure the graphics are dated, and fine the sounds are pretty simple. But the truth of the matter is, this game doesn't need those to survive. It manages to keep things intense but satisfying. The more you progress the more attached you become to your character because you level it up the way you feel best. You will also build an arsenal of bonus items to use at whim.

This game puts you smack in the middle of a dungeon and as you find your way out, you come across monsters and such. Each one a battle of its own where you have to spell to survive. So I guess not only is it fun, but you even exercise your brain as well. How many games can boast like that?

Conclusion:

I ended up playing the entire 30 minutes of the trial wishing I had more. Even though it has it's downfalls, I still believe I will continue writing reviews in hopes of earning enough money to snag this game. I recommend you at least try the trial if you like what you have read - whats the worst that can happen to you? Here is a tip: Try to spell the creatures that you see - it gets pretty funny! Make it plural for an even bigger surprise!
