“Fast, compact and yet consistently thoughtful, there's nothing else quite like Skulls of the Shogun - and, for me, it earns its place amongst the genre's greats.”
9/10 · Eurogamer “Skulls of the Shogun encapsulates whatever essence puts Castle Crashers at the top of the XBLA charts year after year, and does so without infringing on that game's intellectual property or overall vibe.”
5/5 · Joystiq “Equal parts quirky and complex, it only comes to prove that the glory days of this often forgotten genre aren’t quite gone.”
