The action/adventure platformer sees Skully, a reanimated skull's second chance at life, on a quest to stop a simmering war between feuding siblings.

Skully is a brand new game set within an island paradise on the brink of war where payers will befriend the isle's lone hope of peace, Skully, a lively reanimated skull which can take on new forms (and powers) by using the island's pools of magical clay.

Summoned by a local deity desperate for peace among his kin, Skully can sculpt new abilities from pools of magical clay found throughout the lush island he has washed up on.

Skully must hop, skip, and roll through this diverse island habitat teeming with obstacles and puzzles to intervene in a feud between the deity’s three siblings whose quarrel jeopardizes the place they call home.


Today’s video showcases the headstrong protagonist’s ability to nimbly cross lush stretches of a sprawling island paradise, hopping across stepping-stone pathways with ease and twisting through perilous caverns pooling with scorching lava. Aided by powerful new forms sculpted from the isle’s pools of magical clay and an endearingly graceless ally named Terry, Skully always finds a way to clear (or crash through) obstacles, be they perplexing puzzles or impassable piles of stone.

Key Features:

  • Hop, skip and roll your way to victory. Overcome obstacles across the island as Skully, a reanimated skull brought back to life by the power of magical clay.
  • Adapt to your environment. Transform into three distinct forms to overcome challenges and defeat enemies.
  • Traverse a mysterious island. Roll through 18 different levels in 7 distinct ecosystems each packed with unique dangers.
  • Explore a compelling story. Fully voiced dialogue and cutscenes breathe life into the island’s inhabitants and the charming world of Skully!
  • Stop a destructive rivalry. Discover the secret behind the deity’s family conflict and end their quarrel.

Skully rolls onto Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One and PC (Steam) on August 4, 2020 for $29.99.
