Skylark

About

Skylark puts you in the shoes of a former mobster hunting down the people who killed his best friend. You fight through various mafia bosses to earn upgrades that make your character stronger and more powerful. The gameplay focuses on action as you decide whether to seize control of the city or liberate it from corrupt leaders. Every victory grants new abilities that change how you approach the next challenge in this single player adventure. The community sees this title as competitive, though only one vote has been cast so far. That small dataset suggests players might be looking for a way to measure their performance against others or perhaps just enjoy the high stakes of the revenge plot. The choice to take over or free the city adds a layer of strategy to what could otherwise be a standard beat em up. You get to shape the outcome based on how well you handle the upgrades and enemies along the way.
