Vow of the Wordlocks

Vow of the Wordlocks is a roguelike where you control a Wordlock and cast spells by forming letters into words - horizontally or vertically, the higher the score, the stronger the sorcery.This is my vow to the dust that dreams upon the shelves:To not silence contention with comfortFirst, you need to choose a vow. For example, you can swear the Vow of the Librarian, sworn by Balthazar between the old books of the dragons' library, infamous for their ingenious poetry. And fight by the rigour of elemental magic, teleports and mind control.Or you follow the way of Scheherazade, the Vow of the Storyteller, and weave your words into imaginations that fight for you.To hoard no gold nor sway save it be in pursuit of this vowNo oath entirely forbids material possessions. Slain enemies drop them, and there are many treasures and chests. Your items will always improve, but never be perfect. Is it more important for your spells to pierce shields, or to heal of damage dealt to enemies? Do you prefer the "Subjunctive Burial Urn of Mir" over the "Indicative Alchemist's Mask of Syntax"?All relics have a core component they change about the game, and randomly generated Affixes on top - to maximize the fun of hunting for the (preliminary) perfect relic.Never will I stop doubting my old teachers and forefathers, whatever their brilliance may be Do you want to score double when you place a letter on a certain tile, or force enemies to drown themselves in the sea? Are high stats of "Irony" preferable over "Rigour"? But alas, the mighty power of the Internet might be of no avail - skilltrees are randomly generated, and so are the environments you fight your enemies in. Each iteration of your vow is completely different.And ask only for the truth in what others forbade Will you free the demon prince, bound to his pentagram via guilt, love, and remorse? Will you part the blue sea by invoking the power of the staff of the eternal wanderer?Will you reunite the four elements of fire, water, love and brass?The foresaid I swear by the ice of Xuhivan the Godless, and by the staff of Sùlimo the Holy (The vow may also be taken without religious affirmation)
