About Skul: The Hero Slayer
Skul: The Hero Slayer is an indie action-adventure game infused with roguelike elements. Players take on the role of Skul, a lone skeleton warrior who stands against the human empire in an effort to rescue the captured Demon King.
After the demon army is completely overrun, Skul becomes the last line of defense. With procedurally generated stages, every run presents new challenges, ensuring that no two playthroughs feel the same.
Classic Side-Scrolling Action Gameplay
The game features classic side-scrolling platformer combat, inspired by retro 16-bit era titles. One of Skul’s standout mechanics is the ability to swap skulls, granting different combat styles, exclusive attacks, and stat buffs such as increased speed or damage output.
Players will also face numerous bosses corrupted by dark powers, each requiring sharp reflexes and strategic thinking. Fans of challenging, skill-based action games will feel right at home.
