CastleStorm fuses 2D physics-based destruction with fast-paced tower defense and real-time strategy in a delightfully humorous medieval world. Knights clash with Vikings as you command the battle in real time, wielding mighty artillery, leading a fierce ground assault, and casting powerful spellcraft to turn the tide.

Set in a realm built on childhood memories of building and smashing castles, CastleStorm presents a story-driven campaign across twelve visually striking environments. Lead Sir Gareth in a quest to recover a stolen gem and restore peace to the realm, all while enjoying a witty, action-packed adventure.

Core gameplay

  • A unique mashup of physics-based castle destruction, real-time strategy, and resource management set in dynamic battlefields.
  • Direct control of siege engineering, infantry, and magical abilities to strategize on the fly.
  • A steadily expanding arsenal and troop roster as you power up through battles.

Modes and multiplayer

  • Story-driven solo campaign with varied objectives and rewards.
  • Castle editor to design custom fortresses. Your castle layout determines available troops and resources in battle.
  • Multiplayer and co-op across local and online play, including:
    • 1 vs. 1 split-screen battles
    • Survival Co-op: two players team up to fend off waves of enemies
    • Last Stand Co-op: two players control heroes and fight endless waves together

Objectives and victory

Each level offers multiple paths to victory. Capture the enemy flag, destroy their castle, or complete other predetermined objectives to claim rewards. Levels feature varied goals and strategies, ensuring no two battles feel the same.

Arsenal and combat

Wield a medieval arsenal designed for bold, scalable tactics. Use ballistas and a wide array of explosive weapons—Morningstars, Apple Grenades, and even whimsical options like Homing Eagles and flying sheep—to breach defenses. Deploy ground forces such as swordsmen, knights, and donkey riders to guard your gates, and call on powerful spells to tilt the balance when needed.

Progression and replayability

As you play, your capabilities expand. Powering up unlocks new weapons and troop classes, opening fresh strategies and deeper layers of play. With rich environments, a humorous narrative, and robust multiplayer, CastleStorm delivers constant challenge and chaotic fun as you storm castles and shape the war.
