Hello Everyone, This update (Release 1.1.0) features a ton of new items and Inscriptions that add new strategic elements and should kick up the action another notch. Weve added a total of 38 new items, some of which have very unique properties and may only activate after certain enemies have been defeated. Choosing which items to pick up during your run will require even more strategy than ever. There is also a new NPC called the Grave Robber who will randomly show up in the Black Market and sell new items in exchange for Dark Quartz. Not only that, but weve also implemented 7 new Inscriptions that will create even more crazy synergies depending on the type of damage being dealt and the number of enemies in the area. For example, if there are a bunch of enemies nearby one of the Inscriptions may create a shockwave effect. So go ahead and see what wild combinations of skulls, items and Inscriptions you can create!

The Backstory

What's left of the Demon King's castle...

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 finally succeed in the total destruction of the Demon stronghold. All of the demons in the castle were taken prisoner except for one lone skeleton named 'Skul'.

Skul, a member of the Demon's Guard

Skul is no ordinary skeleton. In addition to his formidable fighting skills, he can gain new and exciting abilities depending on which skull he's wearing.
Use up to 2 skulls at a time, each of which has its own unique attack range, speed and power. So choose ones that match your playing style and switch them in the heat of battle to bring your enemies to their knees. The power is in your hands!

The Adventurers

Skul has crossed paths with a party of Adventurers! They are powerful foes that hunt Demons for sport. But while Skul may be small, he still packs quite a punch. So just see who really is the hunter and who is the hunted....
