John Walker, eulogising a classic:

There’s been a murder. And no one seems to have noticed. One of my favourite ever games, released during the peak of PopCap’s glory days, is simply gone. Not just no longer on sale, but seemingly erased from history, from the current timeline. Bookworm Adventures (and it’s sequel), the adorable word-spelling combat game, has been Shazammed right out of existence.

I spent hours playing Bookworm games. If I could get it on a platform, I did – iOS included – and give it a spin. It was relaxing: no time limits, no microtransactions. Just a little worm and some words.

The world is a little bit darker today.
