What is Skull Horde?

You control a flying skull necromancer battling an endless tide of flesh creatures in this single-player, real-time roguelite. You navigate procedurally generated dungeons, searching chests and shrines while your minions fight independently. During each run, you buy units, merge duplicates into stronger versions, and reroll units or loot to adjust your squad.

For you if...

  • +you like combining unit classes, loot effects, and starting perks

Not for you if...

  • −you want to execute attacks yourself rather than direct minions

Players praise the necromancer premise and the variety of possible builds. Complaints center on slow, repetitive progression and small perk gains. Some players also find battles too chaotic to tell which units and upgrades are working.
