Absolutely in love with the idea! As a non-native speaker, I struggled to find long and powerful words to fight with, but it remained totally playable and enjoyable.
I would love to see how you build on this premise, especially regarding the "deck-building aspect" of it, like choosing which letters you go on with or which ones you leave behind. I didn't get if this system was linked with the enemies I took down (am I absorbing their letters? The letters of their names?).
Great, great, great, more games where you fight with words!
The game froze when I entered the ellipsoidal office :(
