About

Not much is known about BookWorm for the Xbox Live Arcade. It was released on Aug 26, 2005. This version doesn't change much from the PC version of BookWorm Deluxe. The Xbox version uses some of the image files used in the Flash version. Though it was only avaliable to Xbox Live Members ($9.99), the archived files are still playable on an emulator. For some reason this port of the game does not accept words such as "gay", or "queer", but it is Microsoft, the king (or should I say they/them...) of censorship. Instructions to play this BookWorm are below.
