Skull Horde Demo Fuses Vampire Survivors and Diablo Action

Skull Horde is a spooky action game like old-school Diablo and you can play its demo right now.

Vampire Survivors is now considered a modern classic and it has inspired many similar games. But Skull Horde brings a fresh and fun twist to the formula. Instead of just upgrading one hero like in Vampire Survivors you build and lead a huge army of skeletons through dark and creepy dungeons. The game has a silly but charming style almost like an episode of Tales from the Crypt. You can even try the game right now with its new demo.

In Skull Horde each playthrough begins in a randomly created dungeon. You guide the path your army takes but you don’t directly control how they fight or move just like in Vampire Survivors. During your run you’ll choose upgrades buy new skeleton units and collect loot to make your army stronger. Before each run you can also pick special perks that give you powerful abilities and help shape your strategy. The game has smart touches too if you stay longer on one dungeon floor you can find more treasure but the enemies will also become much tougher.

What really makes Skull Horde stand out is how it looks and sounds. The game uses pixel art that’s full of detail but still easy to understand while playing. It’s fun to watch big fights between skeletons and humans it almost feels like watching a cool strategy game. The music adds to the excitement too with loud guitar sounds that give it a strong action-packed vibe.

You can try out the Skull Horde demo right now by downloading it from the game's Steam page.

And if playing as the undead makes you want to go back to fighting them instead this demo might just remind you why slaying monsters is so much fun.
