Letterlike Is a New Word Game That’s Like Balatro But with Scrabble!

Wordsmiths, rejoice! A new roguelike word game has arrived, and it's a real brain-teaser. Called Letterlike, it blends the best of Boggle and Scrabble, creating a unique and addictive experience. Vocabulary skills meet roguelike randomness – a truly novel combination!

Making Words in Letterlike

Letterlike's roguelike nature means every playthrough is a fresh challenge. Each game presents a unique set of letters and procedurally generated levels, offering endless replayability and the thrill of unpredictable triumphs.

You begin each game with a random selection of letters. Your mission? Craft meaningful words, rack up points, and conquer each level. Each level consists of three rounds, each requiring a certain point total to advance. You have five attempts (lives) per round, so choose your words wisely!

Facing a frustrating letter combination? Don't despair! You can discard unwanted letters, but these discards are limited, adding another layer of strategic depth. A handy rearrange mode allows you to drag, drop, and shuffle your letters to find the perfect word combinations.

The final round of each level introduces a twist: a special ability that renders certain letters useless, scoring zero points. Strategic letter selection becomes paramount!

Earn points and rewards to unlock powerful boosts for future runs. Some buffs are automatically applied, while others require reaching specific levels. Collect gems to purchase even more powerful upgrades, making your subsequent games easier.

Will You Try Letterlike?

Letterlike is simple, minimalist, and incredibly fun. Replay specific runs with friends by sharing game seeds – perfect for sharing the agony (or triumph!) of particularly challenging letter combinations.

The game is entirely ad-free with a single in-app purchase for the full experience. It also offers offline play for those times when you're disconnected. Intrigued? Try the free demo version available on the Google Play Store.
