Two new noteworthy games: Super Wild Wild Words and Sky Force

The first is from none other than Astraware:

Super Wild Wild Words

This game is really nice. As is true for all Astraware games it is easy to learn and has a built in help system that is very good. This game is a combination of book worm and hangman this adds to the playabilty cause you are thinking of words to make and the solution to the puzzle as well. Take it from me this game is good.

Ready to rustle up some words?

Super Wild Wild Words is a Western-themed combination of word search and hangman, based on the popular PC and online game from GameHouse.

Super Wild Wild Words has two modes of play: Normal mode where players race against the clock to make as many words as possible before the board fills up; and Bonus mode where extra letters fall onto the play board as you make more words.

Earn Sheriff's badges to guess letters from the hangman puzzle, or even use them to guess the entire puzzle. Additional power pieces include Free Guess Keys and First Aid blocks, which give you back a body piece if you've made a wrong guess.
Super Wild Wild Words features:

* Two game modes
* Build words up to 12 letters long (registered users only, demo is restricted to words of up to 6 letters long)
* Bonus powerups to improve your score
* Complete levels by guessing the hangman puzzle
* Built-in dictionary of over 200,000 words!
The second is from Infinite Dreams (http://mobile.idreams.pl/skyforce.html):

Sky Force



This is one of those games that blow you away. It just looks so cool and plays even better. The demo is very limited (2 minute gameplay) but you can get the sense of what this game is like and you will want to buy it immediately. What got me are the 3D objects during the game (the lighthouse). It is 10 bucks so how can you go wrong for a game of this quality?
