Very disappointing. The board is about 1/6 of the size of the old board; talk about boring. If you played the Word Connect, using Windows 98, you will not like this game. There are very few tiles to play with, too. If you are looking for a Scrabble type game, this is terrible. I had been trying to find Word Connect, like the one I had on my old Windows 98; thinking the name was the same, I thought I might have the fun again of a complex game--WRONG! I tried installing the Puzzles and Games, but that one is installed, but it won't open. I have XP, so there should not be a problem! I cannot in good conscience recommend this game set. I wonder why EGames cannot make Word Connect the way it was on Windows 98, which was big enough to take up the whole screen. This Word Connect is about 4 inches by 4 inches; in addition, there are little chances for increased letter and word scores.

I could only get one game to work on my Vista computer, and it's a lame game.

This CD is enjoyable and easy. You do have to keep the CD in CD drive in order to play.

i have a 64 bit Gateway CPU. It is fast, it does all kinds of tricks, but it is totally unable to run many games because they were not built for the newer machines. I love word games, but this one fails.

This is an okay product. I expected more of the games and just didn't get it.
The order was received when stated and there was no problem with the physcial part of the product itself. I orded Bookworm and Bookworm Adventure and was more pleased with those products.

you have to download like 6 different times for the 6 different game titles. Then in each game title you have to download another countless number of times for game has a few more games in them. It was just to much I felt. Most of the games were just not easy to figure out. I don't recommend this game. Even though you can purchase it for about $10. It still just wasn't worth it. Put it this way, If I lost it I wouldn't repurchase it, even at a clearance price. The reason I did give it two stars rather than none, is it did have some jigsaw puzzles which I personally like to do. With these you can make them your screen saver when you finish it. YOu can choose different puzzle piece shapes and choose how many piece. You pick out a particular animal to puzzle together. Then you choose if you want to do it in 20 pieces or 500 pieces. etc. That was kinda neat, but still not worth $10.

These games are fun, you have to install each game that you want to play though.

I purchased this game as a Christmas present ( 2011 ) for one of my grandsons. He loves the game and it has been helped him in his school work.

If you like to stretch your brain with word games, this is for you. It is very time consuming as once you get started playing, it's hard to stop. This game is fun that keeps you on your toes.

Word Mania is great it keeps me thinking and improved my typing skills. Fun for the whole family because it has a little of everything on it.Thank You Amazon for your amazing web site.
