I would like to cover some new popular puzzle game, New York Times Crossword, in Nintendo DS. It is best-seller in Amazon.
It doesn’t get much better than this. Not only do you get over 1000 New York Times crosswords, you also get a great interface and a variety of play modes.
For those who haven’t tried Times crosswords before, there’s a reason they’re renowned– fresh vocabulary and interesting clues. And don’t be intimidated by their reputation. The difficulty varies depending on the day of the week and there are plenty of easier Monday and Tuesday puzzles for beginners as they work up to the later days of the week.
Besides a massive set of some of the best crosswords available, you get a great user interface too. The puzzles can be panned and zoomed, allowing you to fit either the entire grid or a small portion of it on the bottom screen. On the top screen, in large print, is the current clue and corresponding letter boxes. There are a number of ways to navigate around the puzzle using touch or button controls, making it easy to hop around. And best of all there’s a small box on the touch screen for handwriting recognition (a pop-up keyboard is available too), allowing you to write in your answers with the stylus. The hand-writing recognition could be a little bit quicker, but other than that it functions beautifully.
There are plenty of play options too. You can pick out a crossword from any date among the several year span of puzzles in the game (roughly March 2004 to November 2006), you can play a Monday to Sunday week of randomly selected puzzles, and there are several wireless (not WFC internet) multiplayer options to play head-to-head or cooperatively with friends.
All in all this is a brilliantly executed and deep package of some of the best crossword puzzles on Earth. I consider it a must-have for any crossword fan.

I would review the new game that will available next week. Now it is available for pre-order in Amazon. Super Dodgeball Brawlers brings back the old-school Kunio characters with an all new arsenal of super throws and attacks in an all-out war for playground supremacy. Super Dodgeball Brawlers maintains the great pick-up-and-play feel of the classic Dodgeball series while adding in over 100 new super throws, as well as melee combat – a first for the series. The fantastic versus mode of the original game has returned along with an all-new 8-player Brawl mode.
