WTF is WordTrap Dungeon?

WordTrap Dungeon is a crossover, word spelling game, mixed with classic dungeon RPG mechanics.

The rules of the game are simple:

• form words from available letters
• attack monsters with a magic spell formed by the letters
• be quick, as the monsters are anything but friendly
• defeat the enemies and collect the bonus letters
• advance through the dungeons

The game is available on Windows, Mac OSX and Linux. Please note the Linux version has been tested only on Ubuntu and Debian.

How will the final game look like?

That the game will be available in the following languages: English, Polish, French, German, Italian, Spanish


The full version of the game will feature:

• 2 game modes: Story(which will tell us the tale of a young wizard, trapped in a magic tower) and Arena: where players will try to defeat as many monsters as they can before keeling over
• a simplified RPG system including statistics, levels of experience, items and lot’s of loot
• varied types of dungeons, swarmed with different kinds of enemies, including every-day dungeon fellas (rats, bats and beholders) and bosses, unique for every type of dungeon

Still, there are few features/things that we are not sure about:

• Multiplayer Arena mode, where players can spell words against each other
• An open Level Editor, where everyone can make their own levels and upload them to our server
• Other languages support (Portuguese? Russian? Korean? Chinese?)
• An encyclopedia / dictionary system, which will allow players to check what’s the meaning of a word they just spelled

We would really like to implement some of those, but it really depends on how the community feels about the game. Please comment or write a post in this topic if you feel those features should be implemented.

Available platforms:
WordTrap will be also available on Ouya, we will release a pre-alpha (or later) version of the game when the console is on the market. We are also seriously thinking about bringing the game to iOS, Android and Kindle, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves…

We are planning on releasing the final, PC/Mac/Linux version of WordTrap Dungeon in the second quarter of 2013.
