Steam review snapshots
An example of a banana challenge would be, "Make a 6+ letter vowel-heavy word." There are: – 36 achievements – If you're…Making 5+ letter words will give you a small red bomb, which takes out all of the tiles touching it (8 tiles)…Whilst a story may seem like an unlikely addition to this type of game, it does actually have an element of mystery…Overall the amount of strategy, different level types, different challenges and increasing difficulty makes this one of the most feature-complete word games…Why it fits
Check it if you want adventure, strategy filtered by single-player.
