Great puzzle game

If you like word or letter puzzles then you should give this a go. It’s fun and very well made. Especially enjoy the haptics and little polish details. Recommended!

Cute Word Game

I like how it’s a little different to some word games I’ve played. I like the cute ghost in it too.

Clever, Addictive & Beautifully Made

Phantom Words is a really fun and clever take on word puzzles. The gameplay is simple to pick up but surprisingly addictive once you get going. I love how clean and polished everything feels, especially for a game you can jump into for a few minutes at a time. The puzzles strike a great balance between relaxing and making you think. Definitely worth checking out if you enjoy word games!
