Yes they do.

Not when I go there they are not.

These are the official links from the official sites.

http://www.popcap.com/games/bookworm
http://www.popcap.com/games/bookwormadventures

The links provided are exactly the same as going in from the "web" side.

I don't know where that comes from but it is clearly a valid link also, and it
is the same version as the direct links in the appdb.
What browser are you using?
I got the same result using Firefox, Opera and IE.

There is no newer version.

The links in the appdb are the current, up-to-date versions of these apps.  I
would not have bothered opening a bug report for obsolete apps.
