About the Game

A roguelike word game that combines Balatro with Scrabble!

I'm really into Scrabble and other word games, and Balatro was a genius example of how you could actually make a replayable, solo version of something like that. I couldn't get the idea of mashing them up out of my head, so... now the idea is a reality! I hope you find it entertaining.

It looks fairly barebones, but it's got a decent amount of content:
- 100+ passives
- 12 bosses
- 3 difficulty modes
- 5 play styles (called "bags")
- 10+ ways to upgrade your letters

I might improve and add to it in the future. But I might not, too. It's just a free game developed on and off in my spare time.
