Writer's Block is a word-building roguelike. Spell words from a bag of letter tiles, hiring help and using tools to either get published or be rejected... AGAIN!

Every page has a score to beat. Each word scores Ink × Flair: Ink from the letters you play, Flair from premium squares, Tome levels and your Scribes. Discard what you can't use and play the odds.

The Pedant pays out for every vowel. Long-Winded rewards length. Playing along with the scribes multiplies your score by granting you bonus flair or ink.

• Quills turn tiles into premium squares, wildcards and more

• Tomes level up nouns, verbs, adjectives and more

• Editions permanently upgrade your book

The Minimalist rejects words over five letters. The Deadline allows only two words. Plan your vocabulary around them or see your draft sent back.

Published or rejected, every run is saved in Your Library with its total score, its best word and the full manuscript.
