About This Game

Lord Skeleton wants to become the most famous villain of all time. So he travels through the centuries, walks into the proudest cities of the ancient world and leaves nothing standing: not the armies, not the palaces, not even the statues of their kings.

Lord Skeleton is a fast action roguelite set in finely sculpted voxel dioramas. Every run takes you through the ancient world in a randomized order. Survive each location, grow stronger, and carve your skull into history.

Walls, columns, roofs, trees, gates: the scenery is made of real voxels and comes apart where you hit it. Cut a building at its base and watch what it supported come down. Destruction pays: hidden gold coins, bonus diamonds and a clear line of fire.

You start with one humble stone. Collect diamonds and pick one of three cards each time your purse fills up.

• 33 talents in three families: Stones, Arcana and Survival
  
• Volleys, piercing, ricochets, giant and explosive stones
  
• Fire that spreads, automatic bombs, a scenery-cutting laser that forks between enemies
  
• Specializations that combine: explosions that chain from stone to stone, bombs that set survivors ablaze
  
• A talent tree that always shows where your build can go next

Each location has its own towering boss: a warlord, a pharaoh, a king of kings. Break their legs apart, voxel by voxel. A boss that loses a leg keeps fighting, hopping after you on the other one. Take the second, and it falls.

When the hourglass runs out, a royal statue appears somewhere in the ruins. Find it, and replace the king's face with your own skull. Then carry it home to the Statue Hall, a vast candlelit gallery where your collection grows from run to run.

Babylon and its blue gate. The temples of the Nile. The palace of Knossos. An Assyrian fortress in a storm. A Gallic hillfort in the snow. The terraces of Persepolis. A Greek sanctuary at dusk. The round harbor of Carthage. Each place has its own architecture, soldiers, weather, time of day and soundscape.

• Fast action with two camera views: overview and third-person
  
• Fully destructible voxel scenery with real structural collapse
  
• 33 talents, specializations and a visible talent tree
  
• Giant bosses
  
• A persistent collection of statues to display in the Statue Hall
  
• Ancient locations, explored in a randomized order
