Spelly Cat
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
Your owner has been captured by vile fiends and thrown into a cell at the bottom of the castle ... and they left without feeding you!
Navigate you way through dungeons - casting spells by solving clues and unjumbling words to reach the exit.
There are 2 cryptic levels included as well as 50+ 'normal' style crosswords of varying sizes but any Crossword in .puz format can be loaded in. I have also included the .puz for these levels so they can be solved in other online programs.
All of these modes are still in the Prototype stage - Please tell me what you like and don't like!
Story mode - play through the 50+ included levels - solve the clues and spell the words to navigate the maze then drag and drop the words (flick to switch the word from horizontal to vertical) and place them into the grid. When the path clear hit go to race to the exit. Keeps track of your fastest times and highest scores
Crossword Mode - Can connect to Twitch chat (Options - Twitch chat) - hitting enter on the clue prints the clue to chat and for the currently active clue if someone in chat enters the correct answer it will fill it into the grid and award the viewer a point!
Code Word Mode - Click a cell then type or click a letter to fill all corresponding numbers with that letter
Maze - has a random mode with words getting longer with each level
Battle - Flip 3,4,5,6 letters and spell words (letters can be used multiple times). Score more points than the goblin to win!
Patchword - It's a crossword jigsaw!
Spellycaster - random mode flips letters to unjumble words
