I really love the idea behind this game and the music and art are very cute.
I had a lot of trouble clicking on the words in characters' speech bubbles - it was as though when the cursor was changed, it was underneath them instead of on them. It seemed only to work sometimes. It didn't seem to be possible for me to actually control swapping words in - that seemed to happen automatically if I stole a word that I didn't have yet that *could* be swapped. As someone else mentioned, it didn't seem to be distinguishable whether a word could be swapped or could only be stolen.
So, I'm afraid those combined to make it difficult for me to form a full impression by playing further, but even so. This idea is fantastic ^_^ Thank you for making this. Cheers!
I loved every second of this game. I want an entire world-spanning RPG where you go around stealing people's words and putting words in their mouth. Excellent work, great entry!
One of my favorite submissions so far! Such a unique concept. I love the visuals, and I seriously love that song... it's so catchy! The Magic Shop bit made me chuckle, too. I love how the characters react to getting their words stolen or replaced.
But it was sometimes unclear to me which words I could steal and which I could swap or replace.
That being said, I'd love to see this game expanded! I can already imagine all of the goofy interactions with hapless NPC's...
Creative concept indeed, the gameplay works well! The characters, dialogue, and art are charming! A game well done! :D
What a unique game! I could easily see this being expanded into a bigger rpg. The underlying concept was very cool.
I love the idea! There's definitely some rough edges but with some bug eliminating, this could be really fun to play if it gets bigger.
Great twist on the jam theme, the game is engaging and fun, art style is the cheery on top and simply hooks you into it.
There are a few bugs but with some polish this would become a game worth buying. Well done to the team behind I’ll Take Your Word For It!
