Description
DEADWORD is a survival word game.
As the DEAD surround the city, you'll need to use your HEAD to avoid the HERD. It's not HARD to WARD off the enemies, as long as you find the right WORD.
DEAD -> HEAD -> HERD -> HARD -> WARD -> WORD
DEADWORD is a pixelated brain puzzler. Link four-letter words as you strategically move through the city, avoiding zombies, gathering supplies, and investigating clues. Discover Perks along the way that will give you the necessary skills to survive! Loot supplies and find items to patch your wounds, find your way, and distract the zombies! Can you escape DEADWORD?
DEADWORD features a Story Mode with a fun and challenging journey across 30 chapters. Each playthrough is different, offering a new experience every time!
DEADWORD is a free app with intermittent advertisements. Purchase the DEADWORD Extras Pack to remove ads, unlock Endless Mode, and unlock all Perks and gain an extra Perk slot.
Endless Mode: How long can you survive? Progress through chapter after chapter of ever increasing difficulty. Ration supplies and make strategic choices to stay alive as long as possible!
Bliss Mode: OMG puppies! Forget about the zombies for a while and just pet puppies. Seriously. No stress, just puppies. Tummy rubs for everyone!
DEADWORD features slick pixelated graphics and a killer soundtrack.
Use your brain... before you lose it!

Ratings and Reviews
Hidden gem!
This is the kind of weird genre combo I can get behind! Really unique concept and gameplay, that could maybe use a little more challenge (maybe a penalty/reward system for the amount of words you use?), but is still a five star game in my eyes based on creativity and execution alone.
In story mode, it eventually gets more challenging after level 20, but getting there feels like an super engaging brain-trainer, and I think anyone who enjoys word games will appreciate how different it is. I could also see this game being a fun exercise for non-native English speakers! It really has a lot of potential, and I’m gonna unlock the rest to see what endless mode is all about.
Another solid game, dev! Been playing Fire Ant Solitaire, and I enjoy that one too. I appreciate your creativity in genre mixing. Keep up the good work!
Edit: Having trouble buying the expansion from the settings menu. When I click “buy”, it gets stuck at “processing”. The App Store has been acting weird all morning, so maybe it’s on Apple’s end. Excited to support this game, hope it gets fixed soon :)
What.
I’m not usually one to write reviews but this feels deserved. This is the most fun I’ve had with a random mobile game in a while. It’s also pretty challenging! It’s not insanely hard to beat though. There are ads but not so often that it takes away from what you’re doing. It’s not overbearing like most games are. The story is fun and even nostalgic at times. Overall, I’d give it seven stars if I could. I absolutely loved it. I’m gonna go start over now. Byeeeeeeeeee.
Fun word game until they slap a timer on it.
Played the game for a bit. Had a great time with it. Fun little word game. Interesting puzzles that see you trying to get from one word to another changing a single letter at a time while dodging specific words in between the start and end word.
And then the devs thought it'd be a great idea to slap a (very short) timer on the puzzle. Letting the timer expire DRAMATICALLY ups the difficulty and will VERY quickly lead to a game over. What was a fun, interesting puzzle quickly became a frustrating and stressful race against the clock. I uninstalled shortly afterwards. Unfortunate.
But if you're the sort that isn't phased by a timer and does well with words under pressure, then I can't recommend this game enough. That's just not me, sadly.
