OMG Words

This game is hard >_< it doesn’t scratch the “big number go up” itch nearly as well as Balatro (the sounds/animations for scoring aren’t that satisfying) but if you like scrabble and Balatro, you will 100% like this game.

TLDR; Game great but a few tweaks could make it perfect. Never thought I'd fall in love with a scrabble-based rouglike. But then again, I said the same thing about Balatro. This game definitely fills that same niche and is inexpensive to boot, so worth picking up for sure. My only gripe is that the game seems a bit poorly balanced and can seem downright unfair at times. Another nitpick I have is that the game doesn't necessarily explain all of its terms (stamps, badges, stickers, etc) to you, but they are easy to find out through playing. Well worth the purchase. This game deserves more attention.

I've been enjoying my time with this game, and would definitely recommend it as a pick up and go Scrabble/Balatro crossover. It's very easy to play a few rounds, put down, and pick back up again. Only a few gripes from me. The progression is a bit slow and I'm not sure all runs are actually winnable given the tiles (but that may be me!), I'm also stuck with a "trial version" watermark despite buying the game. Regardless, I'd fully recommend this game. Lastly, I'd love to see more optimisation for the Steam Deck controls!

Quaint fun take on Scrabble done Balatro-esque. UPDATE: This game is very unbalanced and simply too hard. Read the other negative reviews, everyone of those are correct. It's really not a bad game, but there are a lot of issues that I just can't look past anymore. After all the hours I've put in, I've only beat the board maybe 5 times?

Balatro but it's scrabble. prepare to rage your ass off. Highly recommended.

This game has a steep learning curve. Without the right relics or boons, you will lose before you have a chance to go for a single bingo. Money is so tight that even on the lowest difficulty finding the right build to balance points and multipliers is largely a matter of luck, and discards are so scarce that being able to make the right words in order to capitalize on that build is also a matter of luck. Ideally, this wouldn't be the case on the lowest difficulty. Frankly, this game desperately needs the ability to freeze items in the shop and/or a full hand mulligan at the start of each match to help make skill matter a little more, and I hope to eventually unlock a board with randomized stickers for that roguelike variety. All that said, it's an enjoyable combo of scrabble and big number roguelikes and I will probably give myself carpal tunnel trying to beat it.
