Description

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 primary mechanic is the power to absorb the essence of items in each level, and casting spells using those essences. Is there a pressure plate across a crevasse? Well, you can absorb a nearby boulder and then use the place Spell to put a copy of it on the plate. What about that distance lever? You can use the missle spell to launch a jar or other it at it to activate it, revealing a path forward.
