Wordplay is a good word search game crossed with a roguelike deck-builder. The graphics, music and sound effects are all well done. It is fun, if you like word puzzles, despite being mentally taxing. The main frustration is that to progress through the 14 levels of Legendry mode is a real marathon and the outcome is determined by the cards on offer. It is annoying to be defeated repeatedly due to a weak deck of cards that is not contributing enough to the points score. Obviously, that's how deck builders work, but in the case of Word Play, you are really putting in a lot of mental effort to lose to random chance. Inevitably, I will feel much better about it as soon as I get a lucky deck that helps me complete Legendry mode, but at this stage, my patience is getting stretched thin. Don't let this grumbling put you off getting Word Play. This review is a recommendation after all.
Played the demo - loved it - played the full game - loved it even more. I think the demo really will give you an idea if this game is for you, so my ultimate recommendation is play that first. I do want to say something that's going to sound negative but I think is important to consider. I enjoyed Balatro more, and when I thought about why, I realized it's because picking the best poker hand really isn't that hard. Balatro is a lot more about finding and picking synergies. This game can absolutely be about that - that is part of this game - but finding the right word to play is also part of it and that feels more involved (and sometimes for me more tedious) than picking the best poker hand. Now I don't think it's that surprising that I would prefer Balatro (which one of the biggest hits of the last few years), and I don't think it's a negative to say, "Picking a word can be a big and time-consuming part of this game" - I think there are some people who will love this game for that reason. I felt the game was slower than Balatro for that reason. I think appropriately the upgrades are done differently - maybe even de-emphasized slightly - to make room for the words. I like the pace of Balatro better, but not everyone will feel that way, and despite saying that, I'm more likely to pick up this game than Balatro (I found Balatro a little too addicting and burnt myself out), so I don't know. What is this review anyway? Play the demo - you'll know whether this is for you if you play the demo.
