Decipher
A Language
 

There are many games that have their own language or create a world where characters have their own history. Less common are games that task you with deciphering words into sentences, or discovering how letters and symbols come together to make meaning.

We spent some time pulling together a set of games where language, words and symbols are one of the main attractions of the experience. Sometimes this offers essential hints about the world and how to progress, like in Tunic. Other times, language learning is how you solve puzzles and move to the next level, like in Chants of Sennaar.
 
This list includes 19 games from the last 15 years, with 205 likes. They come from a range of different genres and play-styles and are all good games if you want to put words together.
