LOK Digital
A word-search puzzle in the invented language 'LOK': spell its words on a grid, blacken the filled cells, and expand the world of tiny creatures. Each word carries its own effect and reshapes the grid's adjacencies as you spend it. Adapted from a physical puzzle book by Letibus Design and Icedrop Games, published by Draknek & Friends.
