Gameplay

Word Realms gameplay is based on battles between the player character and a computer-controlled non-player character (NPC). As in the game Bookworm Adventures by PopCap Games, battles consist of the player and the NPC taking turns spelling a word from a set of letters. [2]

There are also eight mini-games. [2] Each mini-game has a different gameplay mechanism, sometimes similar to battles, and sometimes with some twists or restrictions that make it quite different. [3]

Development

The game was developed over a period of four years, and was funded through Kickstarter. [4]
