    Incredible bit of humor in @pqube.bsky.social’s Beyond Words 😂 If “Balatro, but Scrabble” sounds fun to you, check this game out!

    A rare gaming recommendation from me, but picked up a demo of Beyond Words on steam which is Balatro for Scrabble players. If you like Balatro and any kind of word game you will love it.

    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/...

    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.

    Beyond Words just raised the wordgame bar. The minds behind GoldenEye 007 & TimeSplitters made a word game. Roguelike strategy meets wordplay in the best possible way. Our full review here: www.geeksvsgeeks.com/2026/04/beyo... #BeyondWords #IndieGames #PCGaming #WordGame

    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

    Just bought a game (Beyond Words) that's basically Scrabble Balatro. I am obviously very good at it, just the best.

    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/...

    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!

    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.

    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 :-)

    Looking at the new games listed in the Xbox store and I see this: www.xbox.com/en-US/games/... The description begins with "From the creators of Goldeneye and Timesplitters..." That doesn't exactly make me excited for the game. Rather the opposite. #Xbox #BeyondWords #Goldeneye #TimeSplitters
