77/100

Word Dungeons is a clever mashup that I didn't know I needed. It takes the familiar 'word find' mechanic and turns it into a dungeon-crawling RPG. Every word you find acts as an attack against a monster, and longer words deal more damage. This simple twist makes the word-searching feel much more urgent and exciting.

The RPG elements are light but effective. Upgrading your hero’s gear and unlocking special abilities (like 'fire letters' that explode) adds a nice layer of strategy. It’s a great way to gamify vocabulary and provides a much more active experience than your average word puzzle game. It’s charming, clever, and very hard to put down.

Bug fixes:

- Fixed a small bug that caused the 'you haven't been using your runes' notification to pop up even if you were using your runes.


Word Dungeons features classic word game fun with an immersive twist. Grab the letters you're given and try to find as many words as you can. Discover the power of the runes - an ancient power that can aid you in your journey through the Dungeon. Acquire loot and use it to grow your power and discover the secrets hidden within the dungeon. Escape and flaunt your glory to the world on the leaderboard. Try a harder difficulty, find more secret treasure or go for a higher score in a fresh run. Each playthrough is randomized for endless replay-ability!

Features:

- Randomized words, loot drops, dungeon layouts and events.

- Rouge-lite style gameplay where death is permanent, but saving your progress is an option!

- A unique and dynamic original soundtrack that evolves as you progress.

- 3 Levels of difficulty from simple and relaxing to challenging and unforgiving. Try Hardcore mode for the ultimate challenge!

- Global leaderboards.

- All wrapped up in a shiny, hand-drawn package.

Harness the Power Of the Runes:

Your journey through the Dungeon will undoubtedly be an arduous one, luckily, you have the Runes. Each Rune has its own unique power that grows stronger as you collect more. Use them in a pinch to get those last few words, or hang on to them as long as you can to maximize their strength.

Discover Secrets Within:

Spread throughout the Dungeon are mysterious events where you can utilize the loot you've acquired throughout the Dungeon. Trade with the mysterious cyclops merchant, use your keys to open chests, and more!

In Word Dungeons, your vocabulary is your greatest weapon. Explore dark corridors filled with loot and enemies. When you encounter a foe, you must find words on a grid to cast spells and perform attacks. The longer and more complex the word, the more damage you deal! Level up your character, equip powerful gear, and see how deep you can go into the Word Dungeon. It’s the perfect blend of brain-teaser and battle-sim.
