Spell words to summon monsters in a tactically deep turn-based battle system. Roguelike runs last about an hour each--choose your upgrades carefully as you climb the Spelltower with a variety of classes.
The starting letter of your word determines which of 26 unique monsters you will summon. Uncommon letters tend to be stronger, but each monster is useful in different scenarios. The length of the word determines the monster's HP and attack power.
You can also cast spells to manipulate your letter tiles or change the battlefield in your favor. Spellstrife is available to buy now on Steam and also has a demo version available. Developer Ben Coffman has done an excellent job of using Phaser to create a really novel blend of game genres and we wish him all the best for his release.
