In reading a news item on IGN today about Majesco's latest earnings report, I was surprised to see Majesco CEO mention a crossword game for the DS that I have not seen discussed anywhere else:
[quote name='IGN']Regarding 2007, Sutton responded, "In 2007, the core of our line-up will include a variety of titles for the handheld markets, with an emphasis on products for the increasingly popular Nintendo DS system. We currently have games in development for the DS based on popular licenses that we believe will appeal to the mass market audience. Specific titles include: New York Times Crosswords, Nancy Drew, and Cake Mania.[/quote]
Does anyone know anything about this game? Just last weekend my wife and I were watching the documentary "Wordplay," which centers around Will Shortz the NY Times crossword, and I was lamenting that there are no crossword titles for the DS. There are seemingly dozens of sudoku games, yet no crosswords, which confounds me because the system is so obviously suited to them. And NY Times crosswords are the Holy Grail. I would kill for this game.
