SKILL OF PWY

SKILL OF PWY is an auto-battler where players combine skills into a build to climb a tower. Characters face enemies in a 2D scene and attack and use skills automatically. Players choose abilities that work together and decide what to improve after clearing each floor.

Clear a floor, then choose how to develop your build

At the start of the trial with the Knight class, there is both a Shield Stance, which is a class ability, and a slot for additional skills. After passing the first tier, the game allows you to choose between upgrading existing skills or acquiring new skills.

Skill cards provide fairly detailed explanations of how they work, including whether they are automatic or passive abilities, cooldown times, and additional effects. For example, Gale Drain includes descriptions for both dealing damage and healing, while Flame Lance specifies armor-piercing attacks and burning effects.

View combat to adjust skills

The combat screen displays health points, the status of both parties, and equipped skills beneath the scene, allowing for an overview of the build during battle. Another useful feature is Fight breakdown, which separates damage from normal attacks, skills, and effects into a list with proportions, helping to identify which abilities contributed to the damage dealt in that battle.

Suitable for those who like to try out skill sets.

Vertical layout places characters, enemies, and skill slots close together. The part requiring learning time is the English card descriptions and multiple stat values per skill. Those who enjoy reading abilities and matching them up should fit this format. This opinion is based on playing Knight during the early tower climb.
