God of Word

God of Word is a fun word game like Bookworm Adventures, where you try to find as many 3-or-more-letter words as you can from a random collection of 7 letters, wrapped in Classic Greek mythology. The main game is pretty straightforward and simple, but the game is marred by other mini-games that you must pass to advance, such as a brutally unforgiving typing test where you fail the level if you miss even one word (and often the correct letters won’t register if you type them too soon after another letter) - a recipe for frustration if you have a timed typing test. I enjoy the main game a LOT, but the typing test section - where you must get a perfect score for more than THREE MINUTES of frantic typing - makes it tough for me to recommend the entire game. It’s still fun, but it that fun may be cut short for you sooner than you expect.

The developer made a quick response and re-balanced the bosses in the later half of game, making them more characteristic and the increase in difficulty more smooth. It works fine now, and if you are fond of word’spelling game, you can enjoy the course of play until the end.

Good work, Mega Dwarf!

–—————————–

God of Word is a real-time word puzzle + typing game based on ancient Greek mythology. The single player campaign consists of several acts, each act contains several stages, and in each stage you need either to defeat several common enemies by spelling word to deal damages to them, fight a boss with varied rules of the spelling game, or type your way through. In the real-time battle, you are given a set of letters (you can change the whole set at the expediture of time), and in order to beat the current enemy, you have to spell enough word correctly to excess a fixed HP for this enemy before time runs out.
