Well, I have been playing this game on windows 8 since it was released. I find this game very interesting and very strategic. However with the multiplayer mode, I have to send turns and wait for thems to be replied by online players. I wonder if you could make this game playable through LAN, this will be more convenient and less time-consuming for us to enjoy this game with my friends. :D

You can play local multiplayer if you're in the same room together.

This game does not support LAN play. The supported multiplayer modes are local and online multiplayer. Local multiplayer is sharing the same device (ex. same PC, Surface, Xbox 360 or Windows Phone). Online multiplayer, a.k.a. Skulls Anywhere, is playing on Xbox LIVE with your Xbox LIVE friends or random matchmaking with other players on Xbox LIVE.

To play locally you either need to have multiple controllers (ideal for Xbox 360 and laptop/desktop PC) or you need to pass the device back and forth for each turn (ideal for Windows Phone and Surface).
