In what is the only local multiplayer skeleton brawler on the market (please correct us if we're wrong), Sokpop Collective's skelets tasks players with finding gems and blasting bones. Does this free for all provide a scary good time, or is this title frightfully bad?
skelets Review
A single-screen action title, the goal of skelets is simple – grab all the gems before your opponents do. Armed with a trusty pickaxe, players must dig their way through pits, islands, crypts, pyramids, and castles in an attempt to grab these various shinies. Everything is confined to one screen, with all gems and vantage points in one easy to see spot.
However, the competition is fierce and the landscape is rough. Each character has a health bar to be mindful of, one that can be chipped away with the aforementioned pickaxe. However, that's not the only tool at your disposal; buried within the rubble are a number of weapons that can be used to settle the score. A skeleton with a shotgun or bazooka might sound like a silly concept, but the end result is anything but. Take down an enemy, and they'll be able to respawn after a set time in one of the nearby caskets.
Unfortunately, despite the outlandish premise, skelets' execution is somewhat lackluster. It starts with the overall match length – most bouts are over before they even begin, with players collecting all gems in around a minute's time on average. Digging around for gems feels somewhat awkward too, something that would be more at home in QWOP than a competitive brawler. When paired with the bone-headed AI that likes to jump in place and do nothing, it makes for a mediocre package. Though this title was most certainly designed for short bursts, there is no strategy, depth, or balancing to speak of. Rather, what you see is what you get, and what you get is a truly casual title.
Completing each level in its single player mode unlocks the next one in succession and an achievement to go along with it. As a result, those who are semi-skilled can fly through this game solo in around 15 minutes, with many players having the same type of experience between them.
For those who'd rather bring a friend along, a versus mode is also available. The same maps can be chosen, and though there are not a lot of variables to adjust, the inclusion is still welcome nonetheless. There are also achievements for playing a set amount of times, though there is nothing else to unlock beyond that.
The bite-sized action of skelets is good for a brief visit, but the lack of variety kills its chances for any sort of long term appeal. Skeletons with shotguns is the stuff dreams are made of, but the end product is far less interesting.

Witches might have black magic on their side, but the hero of Asephy's Shotgun Witch has a Remington to do her bidding. An arena-based bullet hell, should players gear up to fight unspeakable horrors with their double-barreled friend?
Shotgun Witch Review
Shotgun Witch kicks off with the titular witch in dire straits – demons have taken away her spell book while she was asleep, and she can no longer cast spells with it missing. Not one to take things lying down, she grabs her trusty 12 gauge double barrel Remington from S-Mart (likely a hand-me-down from the one and only Ash Wiliams) and gets to blasting.
Most players will know what to expect in this arena-based shooter. Players are given a 360 degree vantage point, and can blast anything and everything that comes into your vicinity. Any and all characters post a threat, and the only way to come out on top is to make sure every last one of them is destroyed.
Unfortunately, there's not much here that makes Shotgun Witch stand out from the pack. While it is nice that there are two different firing modes and a dash move with cooldown, it just isn't enough to make a lasting impression. The game does provide a challenge – dodging Jack O' Lanterns, pink orbs, and a bevvy of bullets will keep you on your toes. However, when the biggest wrinkle in the formula is the ability to blast through the final bosses' bullets, it comes across as a little underwhelming.
The same goes for Shotgun Witch's presentation. The sprite work in the intro and outro is well done, but the core gameplay screen fails to pop with dull colors and a far too zoomed out perspective. While the theme has potential, it is far too underutilized.
That's not to say this title will last for hours on end. The entirety of Shotgun Witch's main mode can be completed in around 15 minutes. The game is overly gracious by giving players the chance to resume during their most recent wave. If anything, most players would have seen most of what this title has to offer within the first few minutes, as the stage doesn't change and there are not enough enemy types to make each wave stand out from one another.
Outside of the main mode and a handful of achievements (including ones for biting the dust a set amount of times), there is also an Infinite Mode that provides endless blasting. However, it has the same amount of variety as the main mode, with few enemy types and a lack of any serious patterns.
The combination of shotguns and witches should make for a grand ol' time, but the arena-based action of Shotgun Witch fails to impress with its lack of variety and short length.

Persona 5 Strikers Arriving Stateside February 23
Released in Japan earlier this year, Atlus West will release Persona 5 Strikers for the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam stateside on February 23, 2021.
A gameplay crossover between Koei Tecmo's Dynasty Warriors and Atlus's Persona 5 (you can read our review of the base game here), Persona 5 Strikers is a hack-and-slash title set six months after the events of the original title. This title once again follows Joker and the Phantom Thieves of Hearts as they set out to investigate a series of mysterious change of heart cases that are happening all across Japan.
Although this title uses a real-time combat system, players can also utilize a command-based skills menu that pauses the action to allow for the tactical positioning of Persona skills. In addition, all party members can obtain new moves (which are known as "Master Arts") by controlling characters manually and taking down enemies. Hitting enemy weak points can also activate a 1 More or All-Out Attack.
