Skeldritch, Ancient Demon ("Capbone, Ancient Demon" in the European version) is the boss of the Sand Temple in Spirit Tracks. Skeldritch is an extremely large skeletal demon whose attire consists of several pieces of armor. If Link wishes to defeat him, he must use his Sand Wand and Sword. If he is successful in vanquishing this demon, he will be rewarded with a Heart Container and the Bow of Light.

Strategy

Upon entering the battle area, a short cutscene will play wherein Skeldritch's skull is visible on the sand. After a moment, its eyes light up and long body lashes out of the sand.

Skeldritch's weakspot is the bottom of his body. Using the Sand Wand, Link must stop the oncoming boulders and use the adjacent catapults to launch the boulders back and strike Skeldritch.

The bottom metallic portion is its weak spot.

Once you have the boulder secured, launch the catapult.

The subsequent portion of Skeldritch's body are only vulnerable from certain sides. Link must hit Skeldritch from the right to remove the next portion of his body. The problem is that Skeldritch always faces Link. Link must position Skeldritch so its exposed part is facing a catapult to tie right. Using the Bow, Link must launch the boulder and inflict damage on Skeldritch. During this phase, Skeldritch emits laser beams from its eyes which Link must avoid.

Dodge those lasers!

Position Link to the right.

The next phase is slightly trickier because Skeldritch begins to shoot red boulders able to penetrate Link's boulders. The next portion of Skeldritch's frame is only vulnerable at the back. Position Link accordingly and let an arrow loose.

The anger and frustration are building.

Skeldritch's final weak spot is located between its left side and back. This can be a bit tricky to hit and it's suggested Link positions a Bomb near the switch and makes a run for it. Link should stand between two switches exposing Skeldritch's weak spot. Once Skeldritch is hit, its skull will drop to the ground.

The final frontier.

During this final hectic phase, surround Skeldritch with a wall of sand on all sides so as to traverse the raised sand and smack the boss's exposed purple cranium. Remember: Link must be on elevated sand to strike Skeldritch.

Hit Skeldritch's exposed purple cranium and finish the fight.

Upon conclusion, Link will be awarded with a Heart Container and the Bow of Light.
