WORDSPYRE

Every word you play is a weapon. WORDSPYRE is a word game with a roguelite spine. You get a rack of letters, a target score, and four hands to reach it. Spell a word, watch it score, and try to stay ahead of a target that doubles every stage. Fall short and the run is over — start again from nothing. The words alone will not carry you. Between stages you spend Diamonds in the shop on Glyphs: small, permanent upgrades that change how scoring works. One pays out for every vowel. One triples any word of six letters or more. One only fires when your word starts and ends with the same letter. Slot them in the right order, overclock the ones that are carrying you, sell the ones that are not, and a 300-point word becomes a 30,000-point word. No two runs are the same. The shop deals a different hand every time, boss stages throw in twists that break your usual plan, and Ink Seals let you bend a bad rack back into a good one. TWO WAYS TO PLAY Classic — eight stages, rising targets, one life. Build a board that can keep up. Beat the final boss and you can claim the win or push on into Endless, where the targets keep climbing until you finally fall. Blitz — ninety seconds, six slots numbered two through seven. A word of five letters fills slot five. Fill all six before the clock runs out, and chase your own best score. Made for one hand and short sessions. A Blitz run takes ninety seconds. A Classic run takes about fifteen minutes, and losing one is the point. Spell. Score. Survive.
