Skul: The Hero Slayer reviews and comments
Pretty fun start. It’s challenging but at least to start I’m liking playing around with new skulls and items. It hasn’t been frustrating yet… although I’ve been stuck in the second boss for like 10 tries. The gameplay feels good. Not as good hades or dead cells but still solid. Better than a lot of the other roguelites I’ve played. I also like the story change up where the humans are bad and the skeletons and witches and demons are just living in the forest minding their own business.
Nice I beat those sister knights that were giving me trouble. And weirdly enough I beat them without the unique skulls that o thought were the best. I keep having these “really strong” builds with the predator who I think is the best skull but then I get to the fight and I lose. This time it was a basic shield skull and I think it’s called the warrior.
Ooh best run yet. I got the grim reaper early on and went heavy on magic attacks and it worked very well. I beat the sisters, advanced fully to the next boss and beat that boss first try. I unlocked a huge amount of dark crystals. I’m really liking Skul. Very happy I played before it left gamepass.
Loving this game. It’s a lot of fun.
Current Score: B+
