CrossCraze 2.02d (Shareware, $24.95)

A terrific new word game for 1-4 players. Compete with friends or against the computer by placing letters on a board to form interlocking words. CrossCraze2 is both fun and educational, and is suitable for all ages - simple enough for children, yet challenging enough for mature gamers.

Special features include: stunning graphics; an easy-to-use drag-and-drop interface; 50 different board layouts; 4 fiendishly clever levels of Artificial Intelligence; LAN / internet multiplayer support; and a massive 730,000 word vocabulary covering US, UK and International English, as well as Fren
