HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (108 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Endless crashing

Love the game and it’s very fun Kirby meets dead cells, but it crashes anytime I’ve been on a floor that had intense combat for more than 5 minutes. I had to kill the chimera over 8 times just to experience the story bit by bit because it kept crashing as I was trying to enjoy the story and then it crashed while I was evaluating boss items which required another 2 victories against the chimera. I finally managed to skip all the dialogue I had already read and enter the next zone but it’s really frustrating to deal with these crashes. I’ve probably had the game crash over 20 times since playing it. Otherwise the opacity on the controls should be able to be adjusted and easier to read and click on item skills without triggering other buttons like your quintessence. I’d be happy to give 5 stars once the bugs are fixed.

★★★★★Jul 8, 2026
My favorite game of all time.

That said, I ended up playing it on the Switch instead. Still fun on the phone if you don’t have a Switch. My second favorite game is Dead Cells and third is Hades.

Store description

『Skul』は、展開が早いアクションが繰り広げられ、がむしゃらなプレイが推奨されるローグライトゲームです。 異なる能力を持つ100種類のプレイアブルキャラクターや、強力な効果を発揮するアイテムが大量に登場し、刺激的かつ挑戦的なバトルが繰り広げられます。 荒れ果てた魔王の城 これまでに人類は魔王の城を幾度となく襲撃してきたため、城の襲撃自体は目新しいことではありませんでした。 しかし、今回は新しい取り組みとして、冒険者たちが帝国軍と同盟を組み、「カーリアンの英雄」と共に、総力を挙げて悪魔を世から駆逐することが決意されたのです。 人類の同盟軍は、圧倒的な戦力で悪魔の砦を襲撃し、砦の完全撃破に成功しました。そして、城にいた悪魔たちは、すべて捕縛されたのです --- ただひとり、「スカル」と名付けられたスケルトンを除いて。 ダークミラーモード メインストーリーをクリアしたら、新しく解放される「ダークミラー」モードで自分の技術と限界に挑みましょう！ 特徴 ・あなたは魔族の最後の希望です！小さなスケルトン、「スカル」を操作して、伝説的な英雄たちを倒し、腐敗したカーリアン軍たちから魔王を救い出しましょう。 ・がむしゃらなプレイこそが道を切り開きます。新しいスカルを試して、そのスカルの持ち主の力や、派手な見た目を借り、個性あふれるアイテムとの相乗効果を生み出しながら、敵を倒しましょう。 ・「死せる者はもはや死なず」 --- アクション満載のローグライトなプラットフォームに待ち受けているすべての難関に立ち向かうまで、あなたに死の床で休んでいる暇はありません。 ・躍動感のある2Dプクセルアートを視覚的に楽しみながら、様々な種類の魔族の仲間を元の姿に戻してあげましょう。 ・エジプトのミイラや、ギリシャのミノタウロス、そして『Dead Cells』との公式クロスオーバーなど……ゲーム中に散りばめられた愉快な「隠し要素」を、あなたは見つけることができるでしょうか？ モバイル向けに丁寧に再設計 ・インターフェイスを刷新 ― タッチ操作のみでプレイできるモバイル専用UI ・Game Centerの実績に対応 ・クラウドセーブ ― iOS端末間でゲームファイルを共有可能 ・MFiコントローラーに対応 ・iPhone 15最適化（Pro Maxを含む）
