About This Demo

WORDS CAN BE DEADLY

Experience the opening chapter of LETTERBANE, a dark word-building roguelite with the depth of a deckbuilder.

Draw magical letter stones, form devastating words and develop an elemental build as you fight your way toward the first boss. Every letter you collect and every item you choose can reshape your strategy.

BUILD YOUR WORDS. SHAPE YOUR RUN.

Every letter stone carries its own element, quality and base damage. Combine them into valid words to attack your enemies and trigger powerful elemental effects.

Fire, ice, poison and lightning can interact with your words in completely different ways. What begins as a simple attack can evolve into destructive magical combinations.

DISCOVER THREE TYPES OF CASTS

Form special combinations and unleash:

• SPELLCASTS

• SIGILCASTS

• MYSTICCASTS

Experiment with your letters and discover how different casts can transform an ordinary word into something far more dangerous.

BUY, SELL AND ADAPT

Visit the shop during your run to:

• Purchase new letter stones

• Collect build-changing items

• Sell unwanted stones

• Refine your letter pool

Shape your build carefully, remove weak letters and hunt for the combinations that can carry you through the first boss.
