Raskulls



Xbox 360 Arcade game that combines both quick platforming and block puzzles. The cast consists of skeleton creatures known as "Raskulls" who must retrieve some "Shiny Stones" from a Rat Pirate group called the Pirats....That's pretty much the whole plot.

Not related to the line of children's bicycle helmets that resemble animals and monsters.
