About Letter Quest: Grimm's Journey
Ever wondered what would happen if you crossed Scrabble with an RPG? Now you don't have to, because Letter Quest is here!
Help Grimm and Rose, a couple of adorable grim reapers, defeat monsters, ghosts, evil bunnies and more using the power of words!
Letter Quest is a turn-based RPG where players attack monsters by spelling words. But be careful since the monsters know how to fight back - they can create different letter tiles such as poison, plague, stone, whirlwind, duplicator, spike and flipped, steal your health, heal themselves, use critical attacks, and much, much more!
Don't worry - Grimm and Rose have a lot of tricks up their sleeves too, including crystal tiles that give special bonuses, upgradeable weapons, books that provide unique boosts, special items, upgrades, potions, and more!
All of the battles in Letter Quest can be played with keyboard - no more hunting for letters with the mouse if you don't want to! Simply type letters to add them to the current word, hit backspace to remove the last letter typed, and much more!
Letter Quest also supports setting key bindings for most hot-keys right in the game's options menu.
Every copy of Letter Quest comes with the full 8-song chiptune-y soundtrack, 4 high-res wallpapers, and some custom avatars.
We're a two-man Canadian game dev team attempting to make great games. Letter Quest is our first game, and we really hope that you enjoy it!

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
You get this older version for buying the remaster. Here's the remaster: https://store.steampowered.com/app/373970/Letter_Quest_Grimms_Journey_Remastered/ Functionally similar games, the remaster has more animations, more achievements and an endless mode. The only real reason to play this older one is for achievements as both games count individually for completion. As for a review, I'd say the same thing about both versions: A novelty word game that plays out in short puzzles with a dungeon theme. Useful as a short time waster, but also highly repetitive. Fills the same niche as simple games like solitaire; just, with word puzzles instead of card patterns. --- Bottom line: Spelling practice with an RPG gimmick. --- [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/38232109/]While you are here, would you consider following my curator page?[/url] [url=https://steamcommunity.com/id/kunovega/recommended/]Want to read all of my reviews and not just the curated ones?[/url]3 found this helpful
its a cute little word game. It's formatted like a lot of mobile games i feel. It's one of those things to play while you're paying attention to other stuff, like a show or podcast.1 found this helpful
childhood game !! i loved playing this when i was younger
excellent word skills and spelling in a very fun and challenging way
i wanted to play a game similar to Bookworm Adventures, and saw this was recommended by people online. The gameplay and other features are good, I like that there's definition for each word. However, the biggest issue with this game is that it does not recognise a lot of English words that actually exists. I know the word, googled it for confirmation it is in the dictionary, but the game doesn't have that in their database. It makes the game experience a little frustating in this instance as the main damage comes from the range of words. Yes, this is an old game. I wished it received proper updates from the developers, as English language evolves and expands, rather than being stagnant and restrictive.
mastered remastered whatever love this game
