If Letters Had Pants
RPS wrote about a game on Itch called If Letters Had Pants yesterday.
$5. It's one of the most addictive word games I've ever played.
You're presented with a grid of letters. You make words. Underneath the letters are objects you can recover that can be sold for cash or put into a museum.
After clearing each level, you choose a bonus. Think Balatro-type bonuses.
You have bombs you can blow up areas of letters with if they've all become dead ends. You can plant flowers that give bonuses. Some of the letters wear hats. Words you think are legal aren't, and words that can't be words are. Letters appear as numbers and give bonuses when played.
Honestly, it's all crazy. Also, it works perfectly.
There's no tutorial. No written rules. You're just supposed to figure it out.
It's a wonderful piece of game design. Oh, and excellent music, too. Here it is on Itch
Clear your schedule.
