Well i guess they are running out of ideas for games.
Wouldn't it just be better to buy a book of 1000 or so crosswords for $5 then spend $40 on this game.

This is the kind of thing that would be perfect as a Sudoku replacement in a Brain Age sequel. As a standalone game, it can't be sold at full price. Budget pricing is a must for a title such as this.

Must... resist... buying non-game... ARGH!
