Skull Tales !A toda vela! es un juego de aventuras piratas, semi-cooperativo. En Skull Tales, vas a ser un pirata en los mares del Caribe, en busca de fama y fortuna, a lo largo de sus tres fases de juego: Aventura, Travesía y Puerto. Dichas fases son juegos en si mismos, tanto por mecánica como por sus diferentes componentes. Es un juego que tiene mucho de RPG:
- En la Fase de Aventura vas a explorar misteriosas islas, peligrosas cuevas, templos abandonados o saquear villas coloniales.
- Durante la Fase de Travesía, formarás parte de la tripulación de "La Dama del Sur", navegando por las amenazadoras aguas del Caribe, en busca de valiosas mercancías, abordando navíos, enfrentándote a todo tipo de peligros del mar, y evitando a las bestias más temidas de todos los océanos.
- Por último, tendrás la posibilidad de descansar y gastar todo tu botín en la Fase de Puerto.
