Mary Skelter 2 is out now on PC!

Thu, 13th Jan 2022 | Posted by Ross

Hi everyone, 

I’m delighted to say that the deliciously dark fairy tale dungeon crawler, Mary Skelter 2, is out now on Steam, priced at $34.99 with a 15% launch discount, lasting until the 20th January

So, hurry to the Mary Skelter 2 Steam Store Page, or GOG page to take advantage of this fantastic offer! Everyone here at Ghostlight is really looking forward to hearing how much you enjoy the game, so make sure to let us know on social media, or leave a Steam review. We can’t wait to see what you think" 

What must you sacrifice to escape fate? Find out in this nightmarish dungeon-crawling RPG! The Nightmare continues in Mary Skelter 2! In this first-person dungeon crawler, play as fairy tale-inspired characters called Blood Maidens, each with deeply customizable character-specific classes. Balance between power and madness in turn-based battles with a blood-fueled transformation system, and escape a living prison while indestructible Nightmares give chase in real time. 

The Jail - a living prison that feeds on the humans trapped within its confines. The Jail appeared a number of years ago with the caving of the city around it. 

Now twisted creatures known as Marchens and treacherous Nightmares roam its halls. Otsuu and Little Mermaid are a part of a group of humans known as "Dawn" attempting to survive these horrors. They succeed in saving Alice and a young man named Jack on one mission. However, on their return back to base, Alice goes mad and begins attacking those around her. Alice strikes Jack, who was trying to protect Otsuu and Little Mermaid, knocking them down a chasm. Later, Otsuu and Little Mermaid awaken from the fall only to find Jack on the verge of death... 

And so begins our tale of escaping from fate, led by a group of girls seeking sanctuary in this mad world, and of the young man who would transform into madness itself - a Nightmare. 

Mary Skelter 2 revisits the previous game by including the full remake of Mary Skelter: Nightmares. Improvements made in the remake have been reflected in Mary Skelter 2, for an even more intense experience

(Of course, you can enjoy Mary Skelter 2 on its own.) 

  • Overcome the fury and the bloodbath of battles!  

  • Use the Madness of Massacre Mode and Blood Skelter Mode to turn the tides of Battle!  

  • Use the Job System to change your abilities and your style!  

  • Use your blood abilities to overcome fiendish traps and solve cunning puzzles! 

Reviews for the console version of Mary Skelter 2 have been fantastic too, with Cubed3 saying: “With Mary Skelter 2, Compile Heart has shown that they can deliver a phenomenal DRPG. Every aspect of this entry has been refined to a near-flawless level.” 

Meanwhile, Digitally Downloaded said: “It's the sequel to one of the most original and memorable dungeon crawlers in recent memory, and that too makes it one of the most original and memorable dungeon crawlers in recent memory.”  

RPGamer has this to add: ...Mary Skelter 2 gets a hearty recommendation.” 

That’s it for now. I’ll be back soon with more news from Ghostlight. In the meantime, why not say hi to me on either on the Ghostlight Twitter, my personal Twitter, our Facebook page, our Instagram page, or checkout our YouTube Channel. Not only do I promise not to bite, but I’ll also share the latest news from Ghostlight and on Mary Skelter 2 with you.
