Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a slow, exploratory climb may hit a wall when the collapsing building forces constant upward movement.
- Those looking for a deep role-playing system or long-form progression may find the campaign-and-skirmish structure limited.
- Players without access to local multiplayer partners may miss much of the competitive format.
Our take on SkyScrappers
Players who prefer deliberate platforming may bounce off when the building starts collapsing and movement becomes a race upward. Those seeking a slower campaign may also hit a wall at the shift from story chapters to repeatable AI or multiplayer skirmishes.
What is SkyScrappers?
SkyScrappers is a vertically scrolling arcade fighting game set inside a skyscraper being demolished.
Players run, jump, battle opponents, and race toward the top while the building collapses. The game offers four campaigns that follow its fighters and their intersecting stories, plus skirmishes against AI-controlled opponents. Up to four people can play locally, with Steam Remote Play available for online co-op sessions. Players can choose from several extreme-sports characters and compete in skill-focused platform-brawler matches. A single-player story mode, controller support, hand-drawn visuals, and 60fps action are included.
