Raskulls is a 2010 Xbox 360 Arcade game by Halfbrick Studios that combines both quick platforming and block puzzles.A band of vicious Rat Pirates called the Pirats crash lands on the mysterious planet they've never been to before. Forced to postpone their search for Cheese Planet, they find a reliable source of fuel for their ship in "Shiny Stones". However, they are also important to Raskulls, a cast of skeleton creatures inhabiting this planet. After Pirats fail their first attempt at stealing the stones, The King decides to host a tournament to capture the thief. Thus begins Raskully quest to keep and retrieve those Shiny Stones, before Pirats can get away with them.Another game starring Raskulls, titled Magic Brick Wars was soft-launched in 2018 and released globally the next year. However, the game is a multiplayer-focused real-time strategy game with no plot to it. Think Clash Royale, just without Archer towers but King Tower being able to withstand multiple attacks, with more simplistic maps and the ability to put "Magic Bricks" on your half of the battlefield to form your defence. The game was discontinued in early 2021.Not related to the line of children's bicycle helmets that resemble animals and monsters or the 1986 game Robot Rascals.

Villain Song: "Pirats 'Til We Die" is a Rotten Rock & Roll example of one. It is sang by Pirats, who threaten Raskulls to give up all their treasures or walk the plank while gloating how they do it not just to live and eat, but also for their own pleasure.

Pixellation: Played for Laughs in one of the cutscenes, where Scurv and Barney get all their clothes stolen by Ninja without them noticing, with their groins being comically censored by pixellation. Barney notices this, and Scurv treats this as something that happens to him every time he has no pants.

The Smurfette Principle: Ridinghood is the sole female Raskull. Lampshaded by Wizard, who wonders why that is the case and feels that their creators "overlooked the whole gender balance thing".

Cheaters Never Prosper: Koala (Captain Turncoat in disguise) cheats at the tournament, using his own powers to zap and temporarily stun his opponents and using some assistance from Scurv and Barney. He defeats Pompous and Wizard this way off-screen, but fails when it's Dragon's turn to face him. Beating him also gives you an achievement named after a trope.

MacGuffin: Shiny Stones. The only explanation given for their importance to Raskulls is that they are "important to the plot". They seem to have enough power to be used as a fuel for Pirats' ship and allow Raskulls to activate "Frenzy Mode" without having to rely on Boosties, as demonstrated by Bonesaw in the tutorial.

Meaningless Villain Victory
 Raskulls (Video Game) / int_a7c91a10
comment
Meaningless Villain Victory: An eruption from the volcano allows Pirats to leave Raskulls without the Shiny Stones and continue their search for the Cheese Planet. Pretty much what they wanted, aside from the fact that they don't have the stones either... Then Turncoat is told that the volcano that allowed them to escape is full of erupting molten cheese. Turns out Pirats already found the Cheese Planet without even realising it, making their attempts to steal Shiny Stones from Raskulls and leave their planet pointless. Cue a Big "NO!" from Captain Turncoat.

No MacGuffin, No Winner: In the middle of their Big Ball of Violence, King and Captain Turncoat accidentally drop Shiny Stones they were fighting for into the volcano. The following eruption still allows Pirats to leave the planet (but not before they realise this was meaningless), while Raskulls aren't shown to be too bothered by the loss.

Fission Mailed: In one of the cutscenes, as the tournament is about to start, Dragon is dumped by Ridinghood for Pompous. This triggers a game over screen, except the options are "Wallow in self-pity" and "Get on with life". No matter which one you pick, Dragon then gets a message from King wishing him luck in the tournament, and the game continues as normal.
