About the Game

Lexica is a word-puzzle, roguelike deckbuilder where you harness the power of classic books to spell your way to victory. Spell out words with your letter pieces and rack up points so you can reach each round's score goal. Between rounds, visit the shop to buy powerful books, special board tiles, magic runes, and piece-clearing bombs to push your scoring to its limit. What kind of bookstore sells bombs, you ask? What are you, a cop?

Features:

  • 3 game modes to try out

  • Normal and Hard difficulty to put your skills to the test

  • Over 50 unique books to power up your words. Some give score bonuses, and even give special abilities like the power to play words backwards.

  • A host of consumable items to enchant your letters and board spaces to improve your scoring and earn more in-game money

  • A smooth jazz soundtrack to hum along to

Put your wordsmithing skills to the test and play Lexica!
