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

Wordsmiths, get ready for a new word game challenge! Letterlike, a roguelike word game, blends the best of Balatro and Scrabble. Prepare for a unique mix of vocabulary skills and unpredictable roguelike elements – a truly novel combination!

Crafting Words in Letterlike

Letterlike's roguelike nature means each playthrough offers a fresh set of letters and procedurally generated challenges. The possibilities are endless, leading to countless victories.

Each game begins with a letter set. Your mission: create words, earn points, and conquer levels. Each level features three rounds.

To advance, you must accumulate enough points by forming high-scoring words, similar to Scrabble. However, you only have five attempts (lives) per round, so strategize carefully!

Facing a less-than-ideal letter combination? Don't despair! You can discard letters, but this option is limited, requiring thoughtful choices.

A helpful rearrange mode allows you to drag, drop, and shuffle letters to optimize your word creation.

Letterlike's final round introduces a twist: a special ability renders some letters worthless, awarding zero points.

Earned points and rewards can be spent on power-ups to enhance your gameplay. Some buffs are automatic, while others unlock at specific levels. Collected gems also unlock powerful upgrades, simplifying future runs.

Ready to Play?

Letterlike offers a simple, minimalist, yet engaging experience. Replay specific runs with friends using shared seeds – share those frustrating letter combinations and let your friends experience the same challenge!

The game is ad-free with a one-time purchase and offers offline play. A free demo version is available to try before you buy. Find Letterlike on the Google Play Store and give the demo a shot!
