![]() There’s a very clear power difference between the common and rare skulls versus the unique, and legendary skulls. So there’s really no reason to hold on to them hoping that they might become some super regular skull near the end of the stages. One downside though is that the weaker skulls really just stay weak even when you upgrade them. There are many kinds of skulls in the game and one of the best parts is that they’re upgradable with a new set of skills, passives, and even the look. Skul is able to carry two skulls at a time and can swap them out at will with some damaging moves to go with the swap as a bonus. In other similar roguelikes, it’s just our equipment that changes but for Skul it’s the whole skull swapping system that makes it much more reminiscent of class-based games like Final Fantasy. no literally! Skul has the ability to change his skull and each Skull basically changes how he plays by getting a new set of skills, that are both active and passive, his fighting style, his attack range, his movement speed, his dash move, and sometimes his size. The game’s best feature is the ability to play different classes/jobs via swapping your head…. More of the story gets revealed for each boss you defeat. The story is typical so anyone can easily follow it if they want to. The story starts off with the small skeleton named Skul who had been living with the Demon King as a faithful servant until the human kingdom of Carleon and its Hero attacked the peace-loving king’s domain. ![]() The beautiful pixel art style that gives it character, the varied enemies that can keep you on your toes as you slaughter them in the name of saving your masters, the fearsome maids who keep throwing dishes at you until you learn what fear is, there is a lot to admire about this game. Yes we’ve enjoyed our run of Hades and Dead Cells but Skul: The Hero Slayer has a great amount of variety to the titular character in terms of gameplay mechanics that set it apart from its ilk. Skul: The Hero Slayer is just another roguelike to add to the list of great roguelikes in recent years.
