## What is SpellboundSpire?

Spell words. Deal damage. Climb the spire. Spellbound Spire is a word-game roguelike deckbuilder — the strategic depth of Balatro and Slay the Spire, powered by your vocabulary.

WORDS ARE YOUR WEAPONS
- Draw a hand of letter tiles and spell words to attack each floor's monster
- Damage = the word's Scrabble score, multiplied by your relics
- Longer and rarer words hit harder

BUILD A BROKEN RUN
- Collect relics that rewrite the rules — "words ending in -ING deal double," "vowels are worth more," and many more
- Edit your letter deck between floors: add, remove, and upgrade tiles

CLIMB A PROCEDURAL SPIRE
- Every run is different, with escalating enemies and gimmicks
- Boss floors force brutal constraints: no vowels, minimum five letters, no repeats
- Permadeath: one run, one chance — how high can you climb?

ARCHMAGE'S CODEX — ONE-TIME PURCHASE
Unlock the Codex once and keep it forever: remove ads, all themed starter dictionaries (medieval, sci-fi, cooking) and the full codex with advanced run stats. No subscription.

Spellbound Spire is free to play and supported by ads; remove them anytime with the one-time Codex unlock.

For word-puzzle players who want a run to call their own.
