Is Skelly Selest worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Score-attack fans who want repeated combat challenges with leaderboard support
- Action players who want both melee and ranged fighting across several challenge formats
- Players interested in games that combine Hell-themed combat with unlockable characters and a card-game activity
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a single linear campaign may find the procedural runs and separate modes too dispersed
- Players looking for one narrowly focused gameplay loop may not want the mix of arena fights, dungeon runs, boss rushes, trials, and card play
- Players who want a game centered on exploration rather than combat may find the enemy-focused structure unsuitable
Our take on Skelly Selest
The defining detail is its mix of score-attack combat and separate challenge formats: procedural runs, endless arena battles, boss rushes, trials, and a Triple Triad-inspired card game.
What is Skelly Selest?
Skelly Selest is an action game centered on score attacks, melee combat, dashing, and shooting.
Its procedurally generated journey through Hell passes through the Bone Plains, Flesh Gardens, and Soul Necropolis, with enemy hordes and large bosses to defeat. Wave-based modes support Steam score leaderboards. Other activities include an arena against endless enemies, a dungeon containing creatures and bosses, a dedicated boss rush, and Penitence Trials. Blessed loot can increase fighting capability, while alternate characters and other unlockables allow changes to visual and gameplay styles. Alongside the combat modes is a collectible card game inspired by Final Fantasy 8’s Triple Triad. The game combines repeated combat challenges with several distinct formats and locations.
