Bookworm Adventures has been erased from the internet, and I want to know why
Past Perfect is a retrospective column in which we look back into gaming history to see whether old favourites are still worth playing today. 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,

Fixed up the definitions of over 500 words (I do this manually, word-by-word!)
Changed the description of the stat and achievement for destroying treasure chests to be more clear by indicating that it's for actually failing to open that many treasure chests, sorry for the confusion!
Bug Fixes:

Fixed a bug with the sixth set of letter tiles where the letters were too far down on the letters, and looked really broken when on a flipped tile
Fixed a store bug that could cause a crash in really rare circumstances (thanks to the person that reported this and helped me test the fix!)
Several small bug fixes
That's it for now! I want to say a huge thank you to everyone that has tried Letter Quest, you're all awesome! :)

Letter Quest Color Blind Update v2.4.1
This is a minor Letter Quest update with a few bug fixes and, as requested by a few players, a change to make the letter tile rarities identifiable by players that are color blind. Instead of each letter just having a single dot in the bottom-right that is bronze, silver, or gold
This is a minor Letter Quest update with a few bug fixes and, as requested by a few players, a change to make the letter tile rarities identifiable by players that are color blind.
Instead of each letter just having a single dot in the bottom-right that is bronze, silver, or gold, there is now 1-3 dots that are still in those colors, so that letter rarities can be identified by either the color, or the number of dots. Hopefully this helps out the color blind players! Please let me know if there's anything else that needs changing! :)
Changes:

Letter tiles now have 1-3 dots in the bottom-right to indicate letter rarities (so that color blind players can identify the letter rarities)
Bug Fixes:

Fixed a crash bug if quit/restarted a stage while a treasure chest was being destroyed
Fixed a bug with the final level of the "more gems from defeated monsters" book being a downgrade instead of an upgrade
Several small bug fixes

Hi everyone!
So far it seems like everyone has really been enjoying Letter Quest, and that is so great to hear! A huge thank you to everyone that has helped out by pointing out issues, missing words/incorrect definitions, and helping to solve problems - you guys (and girls!) are awesome!
I just released an update, see below for details!
Changes:

Added over 200 new words to the dictionary
Updated incorrect/weird definitions of almost 300 words in the dictionary - thanks to everyone that pointed these out!
Whenever at the pile of gems at the end of each stage, the bottom-right panel explains that you earn more gems by spelling longer/better (more rare letters) words since this wasn't made clear before
Added details about the bronze, silver and gold icons on letters to the center tile's help icon
Grimm and Rose now flash colors much more slowly (and less harshly) when low on health, since the frequency of the flashing was causing issues for people with epilepsy (sorry about that, please let me know if it's better now!)
Changed description for "healing item" for the in-battle merchant to be "bacon" to avoid confusion
Changed the description for achievements and quests for merchant items to specify "merchant items in-battle" to avoid confusion - these items must be purchased from the merchant that is encountered during battle, not from the main shop in the menus
Lowered requirement for "spell 5000 words" achievement to "spell 3000 words" since 5000 was much too high - looked at global achievement stats and leaderboards to figure out what a fair value would be. Thank you to everyone that participated in the discussion that led to this decision!
As detailed at the end of the announcement, replaced two of the letter tiles with easier-to-read fonts
Bug fixes:

Fixed bug where sometimes toggling between windowed and fullscreen with the hot-key wouldn't properly update the in-game UI for the selected resolution
Fixed bug where attempting to equip a book when all unlocked slots were already filled would show a dark overlay that only covered part of the screen - now it correctly covers the entire screen
Fixed bug where the click handling for "click to continue" popups didn't cover the whole screen sometimes, so clicking near the screen edges wouldn't do anything
Fixed crash bug where leaving a battle while at the in-battle merchant and then pressing TAB, SPACE, or ENTER would cause the game to crash
Also, some people were having issues with the readability (or lack thereof) of a few of the letter tile sets, so two of them have been updated:
Pine Tiles Before:
Pine Tiles After:
Future Tiles Before:
Future Tiles After:
I hope those seem more readable/usable!
That's it for this update! Stay tuned for more!
