==Sequel== Bookworm Adventures Volume 2 was released in 2009.<ref name="BWAVolume2">{{cite web|title=PopCap Games - Bookworm Adventures Volume 2|publisher=PopCap|date=15 July 2009|url=http://popcap.com/promos/bwa2/?icid=bwa2_pre_HP_PLARGE_PC_07_20_09_EN|accessdate=2009-07-29}}</ref> It features the same basic gameplay as the first edition, except there are new tile types: *'''<font color="red">Cursed</font>''' - Damages Lex when used in a word. Cursed tiles are produced by foes such as the Bull Demon King. *'''<font color="orange">Warped</font>''' - Does not cause any damage to enemy and changes to a hard letter each round. Warped tiles are produced by foes such as the Witch. *'''<font color="yellow">Fire</font>''' - It can still cause damage but it can't be purified in the middle of the game. It only disappears when an enemy is defeated (except for survival battles). Once it reaches the bottom of the grid, it burns down, all tiles are shattered and Lex burns. Fire tiles are produced by foes such as the Butterfly. Note: This is the only negative tile that also appeared in the original edition of the game, [[Bookworm (video game)|Bookworm]]. *'''<font color="red">R</font><font color="orange">a</font><font color="yellow">i</font><font color="green">n</font><font color="blue">b</font><font color="indigo">o</font><font color="purple">w</font>''' - Acts as a wildcard for any letter. It is formed by using 3 or more differently-colored gems in one word. Only one can appear in the grid at any time. In addition, there are three new attacks: *'''<font color="turquoise">Potion Steal</font>'''- Steals a potion. Potion steals are caused by enemies such as the Queen Of Hearts. *'''<font color="gray">Shielding</font>'''- Shields the enemy and are classified into 3. **'''<font color="pink">Absorbed</font>'''- Absorbs the damage taken. **'''<font color="orange">Reflected</font>'''- Reflects the damage taken. **'''<font color="skyblue">Immunity</font>'''- Makes the foe immune to certain conditions. *'''<font color="gold">Stasis</font>''' - Treasures and companions cannot be used for a short amount of time. Stasis nets are produced by foes such as Skeletrox. Also, there are unlockable companions that can aid Lex on his quest: *'''<font color="pink">Mother Goose</font>''' - Grants a healing potion every 4 turns. *'''<font color="indigo">Cheshire Cat</font>''' - Purifies Lex and the grid every 4 turns. Note, however, that like the blue purifying potions, the Cheshire Cat cannot purify Fire tiles. *'''<font color="red">Legendary Master</font>''' - Stuns the enemy and powers up Lex every 4 turns. *'''<font color="blue">Monkey King</font>''' - Changes beneficial forms every 4 turns. <font color="orange">Fire</font> form burns the enemy when it attacks Lex, <font color="brown">ant</font> form slightly increases Lex's damage, <font color="gray">iron</font> form slightly armors Lex, <font color="silver">cloud</font> form gives Lex a chance to resist harmful effects and <font color="green">tree</font> form slightly heals Lex every turn. *'''<font color="brown">H.G.Wells</font>''' - Shields Lex every 4 turns. *'''<font color="lime">Skeletrox</font>''' - Upgrades tiles every 4 turns. The game also introduced 3 new mini-games, as well as keeping the 3 from the original game: *'''<font color="brown">Word Up!</font>''' - Spell words to beat Moxie up the hill. The longer the word, the farther up the hill you go. *'''<font color="gold">Golden Coins</font>''' - Spell words to gain coins and fill up the five rows. Five coins equals one row. Gold letters are worth 2 coins. You can only spell 5 words, so choose carefully! *'''<font color="teal">Mutant Words</font>''' - Help Moxie unscramble the mutant words. There are 3 words, each one sharing a common theme, such as 'vegetable' words or 'music' words. The faster you unscramble the words, the more prizes you earn. It should also be noted that, unlike in the first game, you can now choose which mini-game you want to play.
