Skullgirls

Skullgirls is a 2D fighting game that, after appearing on more than six different platforms (including PC, Xbox 360, and Playstation Vita), has finally arrived on Android with a gameplay perfectly adapted to touchscreen devices. The classic attack buttons and D-pad have been replaced with taps and simple gestures on the screen.

To defend yourself from attacks, all you have to do is tap both sides of the screen. To attack your opponent, on the other hand, just tap the right side. If you want to initiate aerial combat, for example, just slide your fingers up and start to tap on the screen. It's all very intuitive and perfectly explained in the game's tutorial.

When you first start out, you'll only have access to three different characters, which is the exact number you can bring into each fight. As you play and win fights, however, you'll earn new characters. You can even unlock special moves for the characters you already have on your roster.

Skullgirls is an nearly flawless adaptation of the original game that retains the excellent graphics (they're practically identical to the other versions) and adapts its comprehensive combo system perfectly for touch devices. It's an excellent 2D fighting game that also includes several different game modes.
