Miseltoe and wine. Chestnuts roasting on an open fireplace. Hanging up your stockings on the wall. Children taking part in, having enjoyable. Giving somebody your coronary heart. All these and extra are sung about as indicators Christmas is coming, but these historical tunes miss the best fashionable marker of Christmas: me posting about Skeal, reminding you to play this classic-to-be. Wrap up heat, strap in your skis, and hit the slope. From this peak, you would possibly simply see the graying tower alone on the ocean.
If you’ve not but performed Skeal, hie thee to Itch to obtain it for Windows or Mac. Creator Nick Cummings now even helps you to slam in your cybergoggles for a VR version. It’s free.
So you’ve performed it now? Alright, good.
I nonetheless adore Skeal. Five years after I first requested “have you played Skeal?” on RPS I’m nonetheless asking that query when chatting with somebody about games which have one joke and decide to it arduous.
I’ve certainly seen The Snowman over thirty instances at Christmas. I’ve seen Elf not less than ten, Trading Places too. I’m delighted to have Skeal be a part of my annual traditions. Maybe it’s joined yours by now too, particularly if you end up with new individuals to point out it too. Just plonk ’em down in entrance and allow them to expertise the facility, the pleasure, and the ache.
