Paperback Vol. 2

No 10 year anniversary content sadly.

Paperback remains my favorite word game of all time. The dictionaries on both this and the original have some problems.

i've played this game more on Android than on Steam (on Linux, btw), so have somewhere approaching 100 hours in it, and that's not including the time spent playing the physical board game. Of all of the games in this franchise i own (Paperback, Hardback, Paperback Adventures, Typewriter, and Word Domination), Paperback is the one which keeps me coming... well... _back_. This is a commendable adaptation of the board game. The only thing which annoys me greatly about it is the dictionary. It doesn't know words like "pawn" and "bling" but will gladly let you spell "muggle". If you tell it to find a word for you, it digs up what, to my eyes, are essentially random combinations of letters - words so obscure as to be extinct, and yet "pawn" and "bling" are not allowed.

I am so addicted to this game. I just wish the piles wouldn't run out as quickly as they do; maybe there could be an adjustment to the game that when a pile is about to be cleared (not talking about the wild piles but the normal piles of cards with points used to form words), it could refill back with the original rotation of cards for that pile. That way I could play longer. That's not a negative--That's just letting you know that I don't like it when games end due to an empty pick pile ;-) That being said, thanks for offering an online version of this game :)

I would so much rather be playing Hardback.

Excellent deck-building game. Great adaptation. AI is decent in the single-player option. (I had incorrectly reviewed earlier that the AI option wasn't available. I was looking in the "Online" options but should have rather checked the "New Game" options. That out of the way, I could play the game with the AI and the game was a hit for me!)
