Sushi is such a sweet little dude - I take care of him sometimes when Sage is out of town, and he and his brother Oni are always so excited to see me when I'm there. I really hope he recovers from whatever's going on with him - kitty health issues are scary.

The Photoshop and Illustrator workshops I teach are some of my favorites - I know them both so well, considering I wrote half the current Photoshop workshop from scratch and edited the heck out of the current Illustrator workshop, and it's so much fun helping students learn how to use the apps.

Still, I'm bummed that it's gone. I had fun playing it, and I liked the ability to play with others without needing to go find people like in Words with Friends or other similar games.
RIP, Word Hero. You'll definitely be missed.

I don't blame people for getting frustrated for a sudden change to heavily-ad-supported/subscription model - it looks like the game had been out since 2011, and I think I'd been playing it since maybe early 2012, and I certainly wouldn't have been thrilled by the changes.

Apparently the game went from "buy it once and play forever" to a subscription model in the past year or two, and if you didn't subscribe, the game was full of ads - given that it was ad-free for so long, a lot of people stopped playing out of annoyance, and eventually the game got taken down.

Granted, I couldn't remember the full name of the game until just as I went to bed, so I looked it up again this morning when I got up - but it wasn't in the Play Store. A quick internet search brought up a Reddit post from someone lamenting the death of the game.

Word Hero was fun - I enjoy Boggle-style games, and the individual rounds were pretty quick. My ex-husband and I would sometimes play it together and see who'd place higher on the end-of-game leaderboard.
I came back to it off and on over the years, and got the itch to play again last night.

I just finished Starter Villain, and now I'm really wondering what all our cats are plotting when we're not paying attention.
