As promised, here are the two word games I mentioned a few weeks ago to keep you busy over the next few days:
Babble Deluxe: (1.67Mb)
Babble Deluxe is a freeware word game. Find as many words as possible within the time limit. The letters used must be adjacent to each other and cannot be used more than once per word. Play alone for the highest score or play against the five computer players.
NEW FEATURES
Full screen display (1024x768). Updated visuals. Simplfied user interface. Multiple soundtracks. Improved artificial intelligence. More in-game sound effects, 70000 English Word dictionary (official scrabble dictionary), Game statistics, additional language packs and more...Languages supported : English, French, Italian, African, Czech, Japanese, Norwegian and Polish.
Unfortunately I can’t say whether this game is supported by Vista. The game unzips to an executable. A shortcut is automatically installed onto the desktop, but not in the start menu.
