What players say
Players compare Skein to Gauntlet, praising its fast-paced action and pixel art, but many are frustrated by the grid-based movement and inability to shoot while moving. The 45-degree attack angle is a common sticking point, though fans of the genre appreciate the co-op and procedural levels.
