Wordsmiths, rejoice! A new roguelike word game, Letterlike, is here, blending the best of Balatro and Scrabble. Prepare for a unique combination of vocabulary challenges and roguelike unpredictability – a truly novel experience!
Crafting Words in Letterlike
Letterlike's roguelike nature ensures each playthrough offers a fresh set of letters and procedurally generated challenges. The possibilities are endless, leading to countless victories.
Each game begins with a letter set. Your objective: create words, accumulate points, and conquer levels. Each level comprises three rounds.
To progress, you must score enough points by forming high-scoring words, reminiscent of Scrabble. However, you only have five attempts (lives) per round, demanding strategic wordplay.
Facing a frustrating letter combination? Don't despair! You can discard letters, but discards are limited, so choose wisely.
A handy rearrange mode allows you to drag, drop, and shuffle letters to maximize your word creation potential.
Letterlike's final round introduces a twist: a special ability renders some letters worthless, yielding zero points.
Earned points and rewards unlock various power-ups to enhance your gameplay. Some buffs are automatic, while others require reaching specific levels. Collected gems unlock powerful upgrades, simplifying future runs.
Ready to Play?
Letterlike is a simple, minimalist, yet highly engaging game. Replay specific runs with friends using shared seeds – share the pain (or glory!) of a particularly challenging letter combination!
Enjoy an ad-free experience with a single in-app purchase. Offline play is also supported. Try the free demo version before committing – available now on the Google Play Store.
