Icewords

[b]icewords[/b] is a hex-based word game featuring animals that aren't cats. excellent start, but unfortunately it's [b]endless score attack[/b], no campaign, hand-made levels or anything, so it wasn't going to keep me entertained for too long. you play as a penguin waddling around on an iceberg made up of hexagons. move by [b]spelling words at least 2 letters long[/b] and try to knock off your adversaries to survive as long as possible. tiles you land on at the end of a word get their letters removed, same for ones where enemies stood before their move. can't do anything with empty tiles, but extra letters are awarded for words of at least 3 letters. you can have up to 2 (the rest goes on the board if there's room), use them to change the layout a bit to your advantage. there's also a powerful blizzard power-up that quickly creates some breathing room once it's charged and used. there are [b]5 enemies[/b], tiles blinking black indicate imminent appearances, so they can be blocked. b...

The level of tactical thinking required is on par with Into The Breach. Yes, seriously. Enable "show turn order" in the options -- it's a must-have. The main menu looks like it's from...

Came here from your Reddit post while researching word games on Godot. Great and unique concept!

A tiny game - but pretty fun. Would probably fit great on Deck, but it's great for a short break. For the price - I'd say probably worth it. On sale - definitely worth it.

A unique word game.
