Birdigo Reviews
Birdigo is an entertaining word-building roguelike, though its nature means it does present a few linguistic hurdles. It’s fun to piece together words from a collection of letters whilst keeping an eye out for whether another word might be worth more points. For me, the later levels in particular are a bit too difficult, because whilst the modifiers can be very powerful, sometimes they just don’t make up for everything.

Birdigo captures that feeling we all felt when we played Balatro for the first time, but gives it a Wordle/Scrabble-esque remix with a narrative about migrating birds. On paper, it probably shouldn't work but John August and Corey Martin have created a game that is quite frankly unputdownable. A glorious puzzler with roguelike mechanics, Birdigo's talons will hook you in and not let go.
If you’re a fan of word games, you need to play Birdigo.
Utilizing a healthy dose of Balatro-like elements to boost your scoring power as you guide your bird along a roguelike migration path to reach their final destination, Birdigo excels at providing a simple game concept with satisfying scoring devices and a “one more round” addictiveness that makes it hard to put down.
