Boggle Big On iDTV
Boggle Bolsters Sky Gamestar's Games Roster
AWARD-WINNING GAME DEVELOPER Denki has created a compelling version of Hasbro's classic word search game Boggle for Sky Gamestar.
The objective in Boggle is to make as many words as possible within a time limit from a given random arrangement of 16 'letter dice'. Scores are awarded according to the quantity and length of words found and bonus points are scored for using the special Bonus Die.
Denki's compelling digital version of Boggle features all the fun of the classic game without the need for pen and paper, a dictionary and an independent referee to check words for accuracy or duplication as they are made. Commentary, special effects and ceremonies all serve to enliven proceedings.
Commenting today, Denki's Managing Director, Colin Anderson said: "Boggle is a classic word game and Denki has taken great care over this version to make it a treat for all players. Denki's version of Boggle for iDTV allows existing fans to experience their favourite game in a convenient and dramatic form, while new players will find it just as easy to get hooked."
Boggle is live exclusively on Sky Gamestar right now. Just press the INTERACTIVE button on your Sky Remote Control...
