Wordlike - Word Roguelike

I appreciate the developer keeping the game updated and being responsive to feedback. I was experiencing a weird bug, and he looked into fixing it. It might have been a random glitch. This is a well-designed game, it’s definitely worth downloading. It’s strategic and a fun vibe too. And no data collection or IAP. Thank you, developer!

Even in its early stages of design, this game plays and feels exceptional. Every element feels well balanced and the UI is perfect. It really has the same strengths as Balatro since it follows the game loop so closely, but brings a fantastic mechanic to make a unique identity. I think more modifiers and further customization would propel this game into the same conversation as its influences.

I don’t normally write reviews but I was really impressed by this. Definitely has a lot of elements of Balatro, so if you’ve played that you’ll pick it up quickly. The word-based items (like giving you mult for nouns or certain letters) do a lot to make it feel unique though. Have only played it for a couple days but have already found several really fun builds. I also shared it my mom who loves word games. It was definitely a steeper learning curve for her (mostly to get the hang of the scoring) but now she’s addicted too lol Excited for more content!!!
