Looking for a campy Halloween game to fill the void? Skeleton King has answered the call.

Patch 1.2 Update

Major Changes

  • New Monsters

    Wandering Mummies and Werewolves guarding treasure now frequent the crypt. Beware!

  • New Loot

    Chests of crowns, Golden Skeletons, and rare Artifacts might be enough to sate your precocious nature.

  • New UI

    A new Main Menu, Settings and Game over screen, and spooky new Fonts make the game that much better to look at.

  • Music

    With a soundtrack this hardcore, you can't go wrong.

  • Automatic Turning

    No more lame turn timing, just play!

  • Lifetime Crown Count

    Now that the game keeps track of every ounce of gold you acquire, you can earn those pesky achievements much faster, and at your own pace.

Minor Changes

  • Red skeletons now deal 5 damage, down from 10.

  • Removed Simplified Chinese and Russian languages until I can find a thematic font that supports them. French, Portuguese, Spanish and English (default) languages remain available.

  • Adjusted the spawn rate and spacing of Red Skeletons, Crowns, and Coffins to increase the difficulty and fun.

  • Patch 1.2 changes have increased the disk size requirements for the game to ~2.2 GB, up from 1.2GB.

  • Added more achievements to the game, 2 more for crown collection, and 6 new achievements for Artifact collection.

It's been a long time coming, with broken hearts and good times experienced as it developed. Hopefully the game can now be enjoyed to a higher degree than before by all fellow Skeletons.
