unlabelledView post →I've been playing Beyond Words on Switch, which, to describe it in enticing but reductive terms, is Balatro meets Scrabble made by Goldeneye devs. It's great so far. My exact kind of game. store.steampowered.com/app/3823370/...
unlabelledView post →Beyond Words - a relaxing and chilled out game that combines the structure of Balatro with Scrabble from @drdoak.bsky.social and Steve Ellis. I think it’s great.

unlabelledView post →If you want hours to disintegrate without you realizing it. A game that mixes the fun of Scrabble with the randomness of rogue lites. Then look no further than Beyond Words. Just had 6 hours gone in seconds due to this addictive game. It's on sale on Steam currently and I highly recommend it

unlabelledView post →One more bonus game is Beyond Words. I played the demo and there's just something about, I couldn't wrap my head around the board scheme and the cards. It's still on my wishlist because of course it is, but I found the non-word mathy part confusing. store.steampowered.com/app/3823370/...

unlabelledView post →If you must have Perfect Dark Except Time Travelling, the OG trilogy is still available for those inclined. Or you could instead support the ex-Rare/Free Radical developers' (Steve Ellis and David Doak) new NOT Roguelike Scrabble game Beyond Words!
unlabelledView post →You can Roguelike anything so long as it's fun. I've been playing Beyond Words, which is basically Roguelike Scrabble, and loving it. Honestly, the only thing I don't like about this game is it's blatant aping of Balatro's visual aesthetic. I wish they'd had the confidence to make their own mark.

unlabelledView post →I know you've just said you don't want another Balatro style 100+ hours game. But in case you change your mind, you might want to check out "Beyond Words" on Steam. It's very, very good, very Balatro-like :-)
