Joggle DS Lotti has come up with another wonderful diversion for your DS. Though it isn't perfect, Joggle DS is a pretty good adaptation of word hunting games we've come to know on paper.
If you don't remember what kind of game genre this is, it follows the same line of play as games of Boggle or Word Factory. The object of the game is to find as many words as possible that fit the game's conditions from a random placement of letters on the board. It's timed, so you have to hurry, but it does mean that there's a lot of brain training going on for the mental athletes out there.
In the case of Joggle, your words have to have a minimum of four letters, and to get a word to register, you drag the stylus around the connected letter tiles to form a word. More letters, more points, so long as they have sense.
There are some issues with the game though, and even Lotti agrees it needs some work. It hangs depending on what you're doing, and you can have some trouble restarting the game. There's also an issue with detecting the tiles you want to actually highlight if you're aiming for a tile connected at the diagonal (Instead of PLOWS, you get PLOSW, for example). Further improvements could also be made to expand the vocabulary though, but getting a 10-letter word seems all but impossible in a random program.
For all its faults though, it's a good game when it doesn't conk out on you. Give it a try, and let Lotti know what you think.
