Fun game, works flawlessly on the Steam Deck and has good replay value. Plays largely as you'd expect - a tile word game with roguelike modifiers. Good variety, the dictionary seems good and there seem to be a few different viable builds to beat the game, which is difficult enough to be challenging while remaining attainable.

What are you, a cop?

game has a very 1990s ms dos shareware vibe to it, with that classy GM soundfont soundtrack and all. Very cozy game, makes me want to flip on my coffee machine and brew and coffee and unwind until i fully awake for the morning!
This game is really fun to play if you like word games. My score added up fast with all of the creative books in the shop. Especially buy Plume Serpent. It multiplies your word score fast. Also when I ran out of vowels, I bought the bomb and blew up the board to get some vowels back. I beat the game in the 15 rounds! The music is really catchy and I started to hum along as I played. Nice job to the developer!! I will recommend this to my friends.
Its a great way to spend some time. i like trying to maximize colored squares to get high scores
I spelled FART and PORN using the same R.
