Verdict

Do something less boring instead. Like pretending to be a shelf.

Like Word Soup, only more expensive

When it comes to videogame titles, you’d think it could hardly become more self-explanatory. Unfortunately, this isn’t the case. For you see, though this is a collection of letter-based wordsearches – puzzles, if you will – the words ‘pointless’ or just plain old ‘rubbish’ would more adequately describe what’s going on.

A kind of game that makes returning to work by far your better option, compounding the fact its thrills can be found for free on the coffee tables of just about every family GP with several irritating additional ‘gameplay features’. Like silhouettes of women dancing across the screen helpfully, or your entire view being obscured barring the square you’re looking at. We can’t go on any more – really, what’s the point?

Final Verdict

A kind of game that makes returning to work by far your better option. 2.5/10
