Steam reviews

What players say

Players mostly like this free, cozy scroll-crafting puzzle game, but many are put off by generative AI artwork in letters and story text.

Most reviewers recommend ENSCROLL and enjoy combining the four elements and attributes to craft spells for customers, a satisfying loop that is easy to learn and relaxing to play. Players like the stories of the characters that unfold through their letters and the way those stories connect and change with their choices. The main complaint is the AI-generated illustrations on the request letters, which many reviewers call distracting, cheap-looking or unnecessary, and some suspect the text was AI-written too. Others point to puzzle requests with unclear or multiple valid answers, a short campaign with little replay value, and a wish for an endless mode or more content. Steam's totals are positive; the reviews we read are broadly in line with that, with the AI issue mentioned in most negative reviews.
