Reviews: What People Think About Phantolex

Rating: 5/5
Much like Balatro, there are 10 levels to get through, each with their own point requirements and randomized additional criteria (e.g., even length words, no using a certain letter).
The game isn't a true roguelike in that you don't gain skills or traits over a run, but instead, you accumulate points to spend on powers.
The music is great, the UI is very clean, and the overall vibe of the game is awesome.
The only problem I have had with the game, much like with any word game, is the difficulty of knowing what words do or don't count in the game's dictionary.
Overall, a fantastic and charming free game, as well as an impressive implementation of indie game development. I hope to see more from Tyler soon!

A fun little game that really makes you think! I really hope the devs consider adding a multiplayer option, I think it would be really fun to play 1v1 against friends

The game works most of the time, but sometimes an invalid word will be falsely flagged as a completed word. For instance, “tranq” was marked as a word somehow. I blocked it, but it would be ideal to have the option to overrule the game in its error. The opposite error also happens, where the game will mark a false positive. The invalid word “culotte” was used by the bot and marked as real even though it isn’t.

Phantolex is a rogue-like word game with a twist: the goal is to avoid spelling the word. Think of it like hot potato - you'll take turns adding letters, but don't be the one to finish the word. As you progress, you'll use powers and face tougher levels, but if you lose, it's game over!
How to Play:
- Build Words: Take turns against Casp adding letters and avoid being the one to complete a word.
- Strategic Powers: Use powers like Letter Rewind, Bluff Stopper, and Word Connoisseur to gain an edge.
- Endless Levels: Progress through increasingly challenging levels, unlock rewards, and win a run!
