Scriver: A Word Game

Step into a word-based roguelike deckbuilder where you buy, sell, and arrange art in a living gallery. Build your strategy by crafting words that unlock abilities, trigger synergies, and charm a colorful cast of characters. Each round you shape the gallery and your deck, then watch how word choice and placement ripple through the plot of your run.

In Scriver, every piece of art is more than decoration—it's a card with game-changing effects. You’ll collect hand-painted works that synergize with letters, items, and critics, creating endless ways to combo your way to victory. The gallery isn’t static; it evolves as you acquire new pieces, visit the gift shop, and face new critics.

• Over 25 characters with unique abilities who can appear as gallery patrons or critics. Meet Bandit the Cat, who steals an art piece for the round; Garrrth the Pirate, who hates consonants; and Sir Righteous the Knight, who disables the rightmost letter played—among many others.
• Endless critics mode for players seeking the ultimate challenge, pushing your wordcraft and deck-building to the limit.
• Gift shop and items to expand your strategies. Buy art, drinks, books, and records that unlock countless ways to build your deck and gallery, crafting powerful synergies with huge combo potential.

The game is packed with content designed to keep each run fresh and surprising. Expect dynamic interactions between your collection, the critics, and the patrons who grace your gallery as you progress.

• Content and variety include 120+ works of art with unique abilities, 20 books that enhance your letters, 15 albums that drastically modify your deck, 10 drinks that level up word traits, and 25 exhibit awards with powerful bonuses.
• Progression and challenges span 6 starting decks and 6 challenge Modes, offering varied goals and constraints to test your creativity.

Atmosphere and presentation enrich the experience, with art hand painted by Irene Da Lio and an original soundtrack by Taiel Ramírez, pairing visuals and music to immerse you in Scriver’s theatrical world of language and art.

Scriver blends strategic gallery management with word-perfect deckbuilding, delivering a deeply replayable adventure where art, letters, and luck collide to shape every run. Ready your vocabulary, curate your collection, and let the critics decide your fate.
