Tell us about your game!
Made for the 2024 Pirate Software Game Jam. Power Word: Quest is a dungeon crawling puzzle game where you, the bardliest of bards, use the power of language to interact with the environment in novel ways.

The core mechanic is the ability to "absorb" items in the environment. Absorbing an item gives the player the ability to cast spells using it's essence.

With the "Place" ability, you can create copies of items to place them on a pressure switch or even drop magical grenades.

With the "Missile" ability, absorbed items are launched forward in the direction of the mouse, which can be used to activate remote switches or for combat.

To ready a spell, hold the right mouse button and cast it with the left mouse button. Spells can be toggled with the number keys.

Clicking some items when in range allows the player to interact with them or even pick them up and move them around the room.
