Still playing this.

I’m glad it stores games online, as I had to restore my phone and set it up as a new device last night, losing all my saved games. Golly.

My phone was crashing at least twice a day, normally within twenty seconds of being unlocked after some time on standby, and showing strange graphical glitches at other times. I’ve been suspecting a hardware fault, but since the reset it’s been behaving perfectly.

I only put six games back on when I set it up again. (Apple said to put no apps on it, but, really, what’s the point of an iPhone with no apps?) They were Mr Driller, KenKen, Run, Orbital, Deer Hunter 3D and Words With Friends. I also shoved on four apps I can’t live without – TweetDeck, Flickster, MLB At Bat and TV Guide.

Anyway, Words With Friends is going along as it always goes. I win some, I lose some.

Sometimes… just sometimes…

…a game completely gets away from you. In this case, all hope was lost when QUIZ was played, but I wasn’t doing very well before that. Having to change letters, all that.

Hooray!

I’m winner!

Ha.

That’s how you start a game!

No, seriously.

I have no idea what to write about this game.

Last night, I played some moves in a game very like Scrabble. This morning, I made some more.

I may even have won or lost a game, but I tend not to remember, as it’s the playing that’s important to me, not the result. (Though I do try to win, obviously.)

The only point to these continuing entries to say “Hey, look, I’m still playing this game!”, because if this blog is any way useful to anyone, it’s to show which games are quick burners and which have legs. Otherwise, I might as well just label some posts as “first impressions” and others as “review” and be done with it.
