Lost Words: Beyond the Page

Lost Words: Beyond the Page is a 2D narrative platformer where you solve puzzles by physically moving and interacting with words. Written by Rhianna Pratchett, the game treats text as both story delivery and puzzle mechanic—you'll run across sentences, drag words to create platforms, and manipulate language itself to progress. The core loop alternates between exploring a young girl's journal (where words form the environment) and navigating a fantasy world shaped by her writing. Puzzles lean on repositioning specific words to unlock paths or trigger events rather than traditional item-based logic. The text-as-platform concept means reading and platforming happen simultaneously. If you're after puzzles that blend narrative and mechanics literally, this delivers that premise directly.
