Pro Tip of the Day - popcap http://protipoftheday.com/taxonomy/term/62/0 en Pro tip: Cheating at Bookworm Adventures http://protipoftheday.com/node/47 <p>Bookworm Adventures is a game where you spell words to defeat enemies. It's a perfect game for sesquipedalian linguiphiles to strut their stuff.</p> <p>But suppose you don't feel much like thinking on a particular day. Or that you don't know how to spell very many big words. Well... then you've got a problem. </p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/bwa1.jpg" /></div> <p>Now, you could just think about what to spell, since there's no time limit or anything, or you could visit <a href="http://www.anagrammer.com">Anagrammer</a>.</p> <p>Anagrammer is a site that lets you put in up to 16 letters (convenient) and it spits out all the words it can find that can be made with the junk you put in. </p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/bwa2.jpg" /></div> <p>Yeah, that one was kind of easy, but there are lots of combinations that yield words that I didn't even know existed... like '<a href="http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/antiphonary">antiphonary</a>'. </p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/bwa3.jpg" /></div> <p>Now, using that site to progress through the game is definitely cheating, and not nearly as satisfying as staring at the screen for 15 minutes and breaking out with some gigantic polysyllabic onslaught, but as a relief to use after staring at the screen for 30 minutes or more with your brain almost completely locked up... well, then it's kind of nice.</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/bwa4.jpg" /></div> bookworm adventures cheating pc popcap pro tip Wed, 03 Dec 2008 13:00:00 +0000 Will 47 at http://protipoftheday.com
