Priority fixes
- [uniqueness_polish] Consider adding a subtle character element or perk card preview in the background to hint at the progression/survival mechanics mentioned in the description and differentiate from standard word games

Store copy priority fixes
- [hook_strength] Rewrite the opening line to lead with the unique rule-changing mechanic: 'Spell words and unlock perks that fundamentally change the game—add tiles, multiply bonuses, create wildcards—then see how far you can survive.'
- [uniqueness] Add a concrete synergy example to the 'Synergies and Strategies' section, such as: 'For example: unlock the +2 Word Multiplier, combine it with a Golden Q tile, and suddenly a single word can be worth hundreds of points.'
- [audience_targeting] Add a sentence clarifying the roguelike loop: 'Lose all your Plays and restart from scratch, but keep your learned strategies and unlocked perks—each run gets you further.'
- [tone_match] Enhance the 'Relaxing' appeal by adding a brief sentence about pacing and low-pressure play: 'No timers, no stress—play at your own pace and take breaks whenever you like.'
