super unique idea for sure, and i like that you made a word game for a game jam (those aren't too common). i do wish the game had a tutorial rather than having to refer to the screenshot provided to get how the game worked (i didn't know that the numbered square had to be up front for like 10 minutes).

Great idea and nice, polished execution! I think it'll be a great hit if you release it on mobile

Thank you! Perhaps just use regular words (no reverse), with some plots and polishing it can be a fun english learning game lol

Might be a good idea xD

That's an interesting concept!

Some music and sound effects would be nice, but it is an interesting take on the crossword!

Very unique concept, a little confusing but cool!

I was compelled to keep trying to work out what was going on, but I really found it hard to work out how the game worked. Once I got stuck in the middle of the puzzle without understanding why my spelling didn't work, I wanted to stop.

I really liked the combination of both your ideas :)! Good job!

This game has a fun idea, but I was a little confused at the beginning because if i made he words reverse - it didn't work -> like from bottom to top. But the Game idea is great!  Well done! the  Mechaniks work as intendet :)

Thanks for playing it! I was trying to let the players to figure it out without tutorials etc., but seems it is quite confusing. I need to learn more on designing stuffs! xD

I had trouble at the beginning and I'm still a little bit confused about the rules. Still, I reached almost the end, when suddenly I had no more squares to move and still needed 1 more to finish the final word.

Still, a really good concept and a unique twist to the game!


Developer

Thank you for playing! Yea perhaps it is quite confusing …

Basically you can move the word “REDDAL”(ladder) next to princess. That word also appears there, and with it as the “ladder” you now have extra blocks.

Now that makes much more sense! If so, maybe a small warning or tutorial could be helpful in these kinds of situations.

Developer

Sure! Maybe next time I will try to introduce this mechanics by some easier examples so people can figure it out. Thanks for your comments! -w-
