Current Events > I've recently started playing Skul: The Hero Slayer

(+) Yeah! (+)

This game is fucking hilarious. Some of the skull abilities have me in stitches.

My favorites so far are the one that spawns a metal band that does a screen wipe, and the one that lets you zoom around on a motorcycle to cheese bosses.

Fun game in it's own right, albeit hard as nails. Debating with myself whether I prefer it or Dead Cells for my rougelike go to.

Anyone else a fan of this one? Haven't heard many people talking about it like I have Dead Cells.

I enjoy it a bunch. I bothered to buy the DLC when it was on sale and really enjoy the not-Thor and Dark Knight skulls myself(this one actually just got its basic attacks changed to magic damage which I appreciate). I've only won two runs in the base difficulty I think, and have since made it to the end on the first Black Mirror difficulty twice but haven't beaten it. The upgraded bosses, new enemies, and new upgrade systems are neat if you ever feel like the base game difficulty isn't doing it for you anymore.

Also NGL it took me forever to figure out what the green and orange-ish doors meant. The gold one was obvious for me but those two went over my head <_<

There's a British guy on YT who's entire channel is devoted to the game, and his beginner tips video was a godsend. I was getting steam rolled, also didn't understand the doors, and couldn't even hit the sub bosses, but since then I've done fairly okay.

It's one of the games they give you for PSN this month. I'm planning on trying it out soon. Looked like something that I'd like

It's a hoot. You won't regret it.
