So cool! Very unique game for a jam. I really liked Filling out the last couple of levels of the tower, the longer words and having most of them filled up made it a lot easier to guess. Seems like there is some random generation here? Really cool if so. I think all this game is missing is some chill puzzle game music to keep you in the zone. I was really fixated on completing the tower while playing. Great work!

Glad you enjoyed it! All the puzzles are randomly generated (the dailies just use a fixed seed based on the date) , but there are some hidden guardrails up to help keep all the puzzles around the same difficulty. Chill puzzle music is definitely something on my post-jam list!

Nice word puzzle. It's really cool to combine the concpet with the tower.

Excellent cross between wordle and cryptogram, meant to just take a peek and ended up playing three practices (and doing worse each time unfortunately!). The combination of keybinds and on-screen buttons is very appreciated. Simple and really solid - nice color choice, too!

I saw a streamer playing this on Twitch, so I decided to try it out for myself, It's like wordle, but in the shape of a tower!

Shoutout to VR00D for bringing you here. Thanks for playing!

I love word games, and this is a great game! English isn't my native language, and my record is 686.

The game has an excellent UI, nice text and particle system animations. Although I didn’t even notice at first that the game has no sound at all, I think it would be better with some.

Thanks for the kind words! I had considered adding sound+music, but they're not standard in the genre. Once the Jam is over, maybe I'll update the game with a sound option!

Oh, wow. This is great - I love word games, and having to guess several different words at once is a really neat challenge. Very original idea; good job!

This is exactly my sort of game, so a big fan of it. Probably my favourite of the Jam so far.

I like the idea and style, even though I`m not a fun of such games. But it is just a matter of taste, the game is really nice.

Yo this is great! It is very fun and quite interesting! I like the color scheme! I think the timer could be visible at all times!

Thanks, and great suggestion!
