COMBAT

Wordsmith screenshot 1
Combat consists of a series of rounds that continue until one party defeats the other.
Each round you are given a grid of letters, from which you must attempt to form the longest word possible within the time given.
Your opponent(s) will form words themselves, and whoever plays the longest word deals damage to their foe.
Enemies each have their own unique health pool, strength, speed(affects clock time), intelligence(tendency to play long words), and special effects.
The letters themselves can receive status effects such as cursed, blessed, frozen, void, and more that change how they behave.
Player stats, enemies, potions, and items make every combat a unique experience.

OVERWORLD
