Seuphorica
Like single-player Scrabble, but with deckbuilding.
In Seuphorica, you place words on a board, in a crossword fashion. You start with only standard tiles with letters, but you can buy new tiles with special powers!

V1: first version
V2: fixed the missing scrollbars
V3: tricky tiles, reversing tiles, nerfed retainers, fixed missing graphics for horizontal, mirror tiles have a possible multiplier bonus, more interesting interaction between retainers/teachers/trashers
V4: portal tiles, wild tiles, soothing tiles
V5: randart tiles, multi-trashers, game logging
V6: fixed both ends of portal being added to discard
V7: better portal graphics, fixed a crash when removing a portal by clicking it, fixed missing details in the game log, show tax when skipping move
V8: improved balance: nerfed draw/retain (drawing the whole bag is boring because you would just reuse the same word), nerfed wild (reset value to 0), buffed initial/final, increased taxes and shop prices
V9: changed soothing color; the radius of seen board is now bigger (but fixed); randarts no longer get 'has no special powers'
V10: allowed the memory use to grow
V11: fixed not being able to spend all your coins (> vs ≥)
V12: multi-lingual support, seed support
V13: restricted mode, daily game, controversial tile type, rich tiles make tiles appear in the shop faster
V14: fixed some bugs with multipliers (soothing, naughty, reversing+initial/final, tricky+final, tricky+initial+reversing not taken into account)
V15: fixed teacher+retain combo
Plans: better dictionary, translate the game itself to more languages, multi-letters, drag and drop
Thanks to Michael, orange triangle, Corey Hardt, Jason Carr, FoxSylv, ambersz, and naciya for improvement suggestions!

Hello! Long time fan from HyperRogue. Love this little game, exploring the uses for all the individual tiles is super fun.
I have a problem though. I... sincerely cannot tell if the blue and red squares do anything? Do they only affect Red/Blue variant tiles, or is there another use that I'm simply failing to notice?
Thanks! Blue and red squares only affect Red/Blue tiles (which is quite significant IMO).
Bug: 0 point tiles do not count as tiles when it comes to crossing existing tiles
Thanks for the report! Should be fixed.
Not fixed yet
Should be fixed now -- it seems I have uploaded the old version again to itch.io.
Cool game! Just wish it had scrollbars or zooming in or *something* so things don't go off the screen
Thanks! I have forgotten to disable the Itch.io checkbox which disables scrollbar, should be fixed now.
