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 from the developers, blends the best of Balatro and Scrabble. Imagine the thrill of vocabulary building combined with the unpredictable fun of a roguelike – a truly unique experience!

Creating Words in Letterlike

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

Each game starts with a letter set. Your mission: create meaningful words, score points, and conquer levels. Each level consists of three rounds.

To advance, you'll need to accumulate enough points by forming clever words, just like in Scrabble. However, you only have five attempts (lives) per round, so choose your words wisely!

Facing a less-than-ideal letter combination? Don't worry! You can discard some letters, but discards are limited, so plan carefully.

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 renders some letters useless, giving you zero points for using them.

Earn points and rewards to purchase helpful items that boost your gameplay. Some buffs are automatic, while others unlock as you progress. Collected gems unlock powerful upgrades, making future runs easier.

Ready to Give It a Try?

Letterlike is simple, minimalist, and highly addictive. The game allows you to replay specific runs with friends using shared seeds. Got a particularly frustrating letter combination? Share the seed and let your friends experience the same challenge!

Letterlike is ad-free with a one-time purchase and fully playable offline. A free demo version is also available, so you can try before you buy. Find Letterlike on the Google Play Store and give the demo a whirl.
