Skul: The Hero Slayer

Our take

Skul earned its reputation on PC and Switch for a reason: the head-swapping mechanic and item synergies create real build variety, not just stat-stick upgrades. The mobile port carries that depth over intact, which is rarer than it should be in this category.

About Skul: The Hero Slayer

Skul is a fast-paced action rogue-lite where losing your head is encouraged.

Featuring 100 playable characters each with their own unique abilities and a ton of items that can create wild synergies, the battles are as electrifying as they are challenging.

The Demon King’s Castle in Ruins

The human race attacking the Demon King’s castle is nothing new and has happened countless times before. What makes this time different though, is that the Adventurers decided to join forces with the Imperial Army and the ‘Hero of Caerleon’ to lead a full onslaught in hopes of wiping out the Demons once and for all.

They attacked the Demon stronghold with overwhelming numbers and succeeded in its total destruction. All of the demons in the castle were taken prisoner except for one lone skeleton named ‘Skul’.

Dark Mirror Mode

Once you’re through with the main story, test your skills and limits in the new challenging ‘Dark Mirror’ mode!
