The basic plot behind Skyhill is gleaned through reading notes you’ll find pinned to elevators and within ruined rooms, radio and television broadcasts, and misplaced cell phones.

Skyhill Review
Skyhill's concept of going down a monster-filled skyscraper, while searching for items to use and combine, is not original, but it's pretty awesome. Unfortunately, the actual implementation is not up to par. It's still a fun ride, but it could be tons better if it had focused on and tweaked its advantages. It should have more items that can be gathered, equipped, and mixed; more diverse monsters and quests; and a greater amount of randomisation. To put it otherwise, it should have more things to do, because repetition starts to kick in after 10 or so runs. Bad? Not at all, but certainly not a must-have, either.

Ultimately, Skyhill brings to mind 11-bit Studios seminal survivalist opus This War of Mine, though in doing so it invites comparisons it can’t possibly survive as the former feels much more reduced in scope and flair than the latter. While entertaining for the most part then, Skyhill’s ease of play and encouragingly gentle roguelike mechanics are not quite enough to allow the game to reach the ambitious heights of the structure that it takes as its namesake.
