SKULD action tower defense demo released on Steam

Super Monkey Studio and publisher Develup Games have released a free demo for SKULD, an action tower defense game inspired by Norse mythology. The demo is currently available on Steam for PC Windows.

Set in the Nine Realms following Ragnarök, the game follows the Valkyrie Skuld as she battles corrupted creatures of Hela. Unlike traditional top-down tower defense games, SKULD features third-person combat where players dodge, strike with melee combos, and use divine powers while simultaneously positioning and upgrading turrets.

Players can customize their strategy by selecting tower decks and shaping Skuld’s abilities before each battle. Between combat encounters, players return to Valhalla to interact with figures such as Odin, Loki, Heimdall, and Idunn to influence the campaign. The full game is scheduled for release in 2027.
