語鎖クエストは、しりとりをベースにしたファンタジーRPGです。 言葉をつなぎ、語の力を武器にして戦い、 個性豊かなキャラクターたちとともに世界を巡ります。 ■ しりとりで戦う、新感覚バトル 通常のRPGとは違い、攻撃は“言葉”。 最後の文字をつなげながら、相手より先に語を紡ぎましょう。 使えない文字や特殊ルールが登場するバトルもあり、毎回違った緊張感が楽しめます。 ■ 物語と探索(現在 第1章まで公開中) 村や平原、城門などを巡りながら、 キャラクターとの会話やイベントを通して物語が進みます。 現在は第1章までプレイ可能。 今後のアップデートで、物語やエリアは順次拡張予定です。 ■ しりとり以外のミニゲームも収録 記憶力や判断力を試すミニゲームなど、 バトル以外の遊びも楽しめます。 物語の合間に挑戦できる、バリエーション豊かな構成です。 ■ オフラインでじっくり遊べる 本作は現在、シングルプレイ専用RPGです。 通信環境を気にせず、いつでもどこでも冒険を楽しめます。 (オンライン要素の追加も検討中。) しりとりワールドをぜひお楽しみください。

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 語鎖クエスト at none against Close Cities's 4. 語鎖クエスト also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
