How it feels

A calm, brain-teasing word game where you build letter combos with light strategic upgrades between rounds.

What players say

Players describe a cozy word-building game with a roguelike structure and a 1990s shareware soundtrack. It works well on the Steam Deck, takes about 15 rounds to beat, and players name one overpowered shop item: Plume Serpent. Some enjoy the bomb that reintroduces vowels.
