My wife is looking for some new games to entertain her while she travels for work. She loves games like Bejeweled or Snood so anyting in that genre would probably be good. Any recommendations?

You don't think she would like World of Warcraft? It puzzles me at times…

Hehe. Surprisingly no. She likes games that have a definitive end. And WoW certainly doesn't.

Check out Enigmo from Ambrosia. It's an Awesome puzzle game. I played the demo when it first came out, and I've picked it back up.

I've wasted away many hours playing GoldStrike and alchemy.

Enigmo is great, but isn't it from Pangea, the Otto Matic folks?

Check out a lot of games by Ambrosia. Not all of them (see: many) are not puzzles, but they are good fun nonetheless.
