Featured Roguelike: Crossword Dungeon

Crossword Dungeon is a fantasy-themed dungeon crawler built on top of procedurally generated crosswords.

Each letter of the crossword is guarded by a monster of increasing difficulty as the levels get deeper, which you can instantly dispatch by guessing the correct letter, or trade blows with by guessing the incorrect one.

There are three playable classes with unique skill trees: the Barbarian, with a focus on Gore Attacks and high damage; the Ranger, with a focus on revealing tiles and ranged attacks; and the Scoundrel, with a focus on Stealth attacks as well as a wide variety of opportunistic tricks.

It was developed by Nolithius in Objective C on top of Cocos2d and is available for iPhone.
