Spellspire Hack 1.3.4 + Redeem Codes

A fun and challenging game where you battle monsters by spelling words. Longer words are more powerful against the various goblins, undead, etc, but you primarily gain strength through gear and other upgrades (IOW, it’s a game for fun, not learning new words).

One thing I didn’t realize until much later — items in your bag are not active until you use them. The first item I picked up was a shield, and I thought that carrying it meant I had extra protection. Nope! The shield is a one-time-use item (like a health potion) vs an equipped item (like a hat). You have to tap the shield, then your character is protected in a temporary bubble.

Yes, this game has ads, and they are *fantastic*!! Yea, sounds crazy to say that ads are fantastic, but how many times have you seen ads where the close button moves around? Where there’s no mute button? Where the ad fakes you out by counting down, then counting down again? NONE of that bull happens in this game. All ads have a close button in the upper right, a mute button in the lower left, and only one countdown. I wish all games handled ads the same straightforward way this one does!

What a great twist on word gaming. While it's definitely possible to win without spending any money, it was too tempting. I spent probably $20 total to win, and I'm not sorry. The developers put time and effort into this, and I got more than my money's worth of entertainment. However, I'm not happy that you can buy equipment you can't use if you don't have enough bag space...that's a pretty dirty trick.

Still and all, five stars.

Hot tip: USE THE MONSTER BOOK!

If you are into RPGs and also appreciate word games, this is an awesome little game. It’s been many years since I actually had a game that I felt the need to “check in” with on my phone. Some people complained about the timer on your lives refilling... I actually like it a LOT - it makes sure that I don’t play for too long in a sitting, but gives me a reason to keep playing. I do wish they had a version where you paid money up front so you didn’t have to deal with ads. I would pay a pretty decent amount right off of the bat for this option (moving it to a paid app rather than free). Yes, any purchase gets rid of the main ads, but you still need to watch one to get better letters for three rounds or to get a percentage more gold at the end of a level. That being said, great art style and animations, crisp sound effects and a nice soundtrack. Overall, super fun! I’m pretty addicted to it!

The game is very original and clever. I was super excited when I first got the game, however over time even the game’s originality couldn’t save it from itself. For one, the ad system got to be overwhelming. Every 2-3 levels you’d get an ad and almost all the time you beat a level you’d get one. I guess the developers figured they’d take advantage of your euphoria from finally beating a level and stuck a guaranteed ad in there. Secondly, there should definitely be an affordable infinite lives in-app purchase like Trivia Crack did a couple years ago before they got greedy (it was $25 and then after a year or so they made it $100 which is ridiculous for a phone game). People shouldn’t have to spend $1 every time they want their lives refilled when it should just be $10-$25 for a one time purchase. FORTNITE IS FREE PEOPLE. The game only offers cosmetic purchases; nothing that affects game play. Imagine having 5 lives and then having to wait 2 1/2 until you could play again. It’s ludicrous.

An interesting game concept ruined by poor design choices.

The gameplay is simple and fun and provides players with a sense of progression and achievement. However, the flow of the game is halted by frequent and intrusive ads.

Ads are a necessary evil in free games like this, but the game is further complicated by providing players with five lives, which are consumed during normal gameplay independent of the player’s performance, and replenish at the slow rate of 30 minutes per life. Unlike many similar ad-supported games, you can’t watch an ad for more lives, buy more lives with in game currency, or do anything else to actually continue playing the game... except wait two and a half hours or pay actual cash to replenish your lives. Five minutes of gameplay, followed by two and a half hours of downtime.

Couple this with the fact that the game is grindy. If you don’t repeat levels and grind for game money to buy and upgrade your gear, you will quickly find yourself unable to progress no matter how well you play. Your character simply won’t be strong enough even if your word and gaming skills are top notch. Keep in mind that repeating a level, or trying the next level and dying, both cost one of your lives. One minute of gameplay for thirty minutes of downtime.

It is a unique game. Right at the beginning, the game starts giving you an ad every time you finish your level. Each level gives you 30 seconds of gameplay and then it gives you 30 seconds of ads. I get that they are trying to earn a living off the game but there are so many ads all the time that it’s hard to try it out and enjoy it. The other issue Is that you lose lies very quickly.I get that it is an RPG style game, however you have to wait at least 30 minutes for you to get one life back. In addition, every time you beat a level for a free star you lose a life automatically. This game has potential to be fun but is inundated with barriers.

This game is creative. It’s fun too. You have to spell words to attack your opponents. I remember it asking me not once, not twice, but three times before I could start a level saying something along the lines of “Go visit the store” “are you sure you want to try this level without upgrading first.” Very pushy. Got to play a few levels and then it said I had to wait 30 mins for another life. (1 life=1 Level). If you like being able to pull up a game whenever and play it, this might not be your prime choice. I can see why the developers would attempt this, but honestly I’d prefer a game I can play as often as I want without paying for it.

This game is fun for like 20minutes. Then you are out of lives and have to wait to play for even a little bit. I saw a sewer thing that said I could pay to unlock unlimited access to endless dungeons so I bought it thinking it would give me something to play while I was waiting for more lives. WRONG. I still couldn't play it since I was out of lives and then when I finally went in I got the smack down from an enemy that is the boss 7 floors above my current progress. This was only the second enemy in the endless dungeon. If I could pay for unlimited lives I would gladly pay and probably love this game. Instead I can pay a dollar to get 10 lives, which is ridiculous to me.

I love the new challenges added to Spellspire. However, there are frustrating glitches in which the game is not giving credit for accomplishments. For instance, a new challenge for palindromes did not give actual credit for palindromes submitted. Now does the game total credit for sp long words that begin with various letters (e.g., “Spell 5 words beginning with the letter h”).
I love the challenges but of course need the glitches to be fixed before I continue playing. I tried giving feedback to the company, but I’m unable to send a report.

This is a great game. You can absolutely beat it without spending a dime, just expect to beat the same levels multiple times to build up your gold and upgrade your gear. The only thing that is annoying is how slowly your lives rebuild but they need to encourage some spending of actual money. I plan to make an in app purchase just to promote this company in hopes they make more games.
