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 twists of a roguelike – a truly unique gaming experience!

Crafting Words in Letterlike

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

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

To progress, you must achieve a target score 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 worry! You can discard letters, but this option is limited, so choose wisely.

A handy rearrange mode lets you drag, drop, and shuffle letters to maximize your word-building potential.

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

Earned points and rewards can be used to purchase power-ups to enhance your game. Some buffs are automatic, while others unlock at specific levels. Collected gems 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 challenge too!

Enjoy an ad-free experience with a single in-app purchase. Offline play is also supported. Try the free demo version to test the waters before committing. Find Letterlike on the Google Play Store and give the demo a try!
