About This Game

HOW WILL YOU SPELL VICTORY?


Embark on an epic linguistic adventure in Letters & Legends, where words and wits are your greatest weapons! Fight your way against 120 unique monsters eager to test your semantic supremacy!

Spell your way to victory as you navigate through more than 100 challenging levels, from nail-biting timed challenges to mind-bending anagrams. Choose your difficulty level and prove your lexical dominance in a game that combines brainpower with brawn.

Select your champion from a trio of powerful characters, each wielding their own distinctive fighting style. Level up your heroes to unlock special skills to turn the tide of battle in your favour. But beware: the monsters are cunning wordsmiths too and can retaliate with their own words of power, keeping you on your toes in this dictionary duel!

Enhance your arsenal with 40 magical items, granting you the upper hand in the linguistic battleground.

Sharpen your tongue and show your enemies who the true wordsmith is!

3 UNIQUE CHARACTERS!


Choose from 3 unique characters: The Mage, The Brute, or the Rogue! Each character brings their own special skills to the fight!

  • The Mage can heal themselves if they use a word that has 5 or more letters!
  • The Brute does extra damage if they use all the tiles in a row or column, and can set tiles on fire for extra damage!
  • The Rogue can use shorter words for a chance to take extra turns, and can turn tiles into bombs to damage enemies!

Play unique challenge levels to level up each character, taking advantage of their skills to defeat exclusive enemies!

MORE THAN 100 CHALLENGING LEVELS & 120 MONSTERS TO DEFEAT!


Fight everything from giant rats to hell demons as you bring your most damaging lexicon to 5 chapters and more than 100 levels!

Beware as your enemies change the rules of the grid, by blocking tiles or turning them into acid or electricity, or even by increasing the minimum number of letters you need to form a word! Can you find Killer Words to defeat them? How erudite can you make your retaliations?

Face off against the scholarly Sir Shuffle and his arduous anagrams - how vast is your vocabulary?

Unlock Endless levels, where you can face off against every enemy you have defeated in a chapter, or even against every enemy you have defeated in the whole game, one after the other! Can you defeat the devilish Redux levels, or master the Mega Challenges, where you'll need every wit and word at your disposal?

MORE THAN 40 SPECIAL ITEMS!


Unlock Special Items to aid you in your fight, from the stopwatch to give you extra time to the almighty Mallet of Literacy that will make consonants do extra damage! Remember, though: you can only bring 1 Special Item with you into battle, so choose wisely!

This gave me massive nostalgia feels and I was delighted to find something like this word puzzle spell-a-thon. The comparisons to Bookworm adventures are inevitable but warranted - this is certainly a knowing tribute and fond homage, with a similar setup and structure to that classic. Battle ever increasingly difficult enemies using your faithful word grid, some power ups and your personal lexicon, for better or worse! But it is so much more than that, it's an improvement in every way. There's a choice of characters to play with differing strengths and weaknesses, a lovely art style, multiple challenge types and a fine bestiary to battle against. While perfect for kids and adult wordsmiths, make no mistake that this game can be fiendish at times and gets difficult towards the end - you will be challenged, but you can always take a step back and replenish your powers so you don't get stuck. It's all very nicely structured and thought through and hugely satisfying when you notice ...

Being a fan of Bookworm Adventures, I really like and enjoy playing this game! Very challenging at times, which is a good thing. Flexibility with purchasing items to help you win levels. I constantly search for word rpg roguelike games such as this one. Word games are my favorite. To the developer, thank you very much for this Bookworm Adventures inspired game and give us more! We definitely need more BWA-like word games. Was previously waiting for the finished version of Writer's Block to be released, Letters & Legends has filled the void! *Besides Bookworm Adventures, I have also compared this game to Orbi's Chronicles, Paperback Adventures, Spellspire, Scroodles, Letter Quest: Grimm's Journey, Syllablade and Word Charmer.

Thoroughly recommend Letters & Legends. An obvious premise with familiar gameplay, but that's part of its charm. The game is simple to pick up, yet there's enough strategy to give it depth and a satisfying challenge as you progress. For just a couple of quid, there's very little to lose and plenty of fun to gain. Definitely worth a buy.

This game is so well thought out and simply amazing. If this is your kind of game, just get it. For the full price I paid, I feel the dev(s) got cheated. The levels are plenty and it gets very challenging very fast. I would love to see a few save files so my nephew could start from scratch. He's 11 years old and this is part of his homework. He's home schooled. You will put MANY hours into this if you want to beat the game. I've just unlocked the 4th world and cannot wait for what's ahead. Thank you for this!~

If you loved Bookworm Adventures, you will love this. Starts easy - as do all word games - but the timers and word requirements later on increase the difficulty nicely. Touchscreen on the Deck is perfect too.
