Description
Reading Rush is an 8-bit style arcade game akin to “Tetris with letters”. Rows of alphabet blocks stream down from the top of the screen and you must alphabetize them on the fly to clear the rows before they hit the bottom.
Hone your alphabetizing skills in Arcade mode before moving on to Adventure mode, where five characters battle each other for runic victory! Clear the letter rows to charge your character’s three unique powers, and if your skills are strong enough you may even reach the final boss herself: Ol’ Miss Zorldo!
Features
- Hone your alphabet skills!
- Endless action in Arcade Mode!
- Face five foes in Adventure Mode!
- Unlock unique characters!
- Original 8-bit soundtrack!

The Frozen Machine has released two prior games: Tunacycle (2016) and Bugs R Stupid (2017).
