Castles Version 1.2

A Strategy Wargame

$4.99

Castles is about the last stand of civilization against barbarism. A hundred barbarians are charging towards your castle. A handful of barricades, a wall, and a small band of heroes must hold the barbarians back.

Castles is a turn-based strategy wargame of using limited reinforcements to shore up collapsing defenses, and using the enemy's aggression to keep them away from your castle.

Version 1.2 updated:

Three difficulty levels: Easy, Challenge (original game), and Nightmare (OMG, they KEEP COMING!).
Occupied rows which earn gold are highlighted, so you can plan your advance more easily.
Arrows from archers are now visible, making it easier to tell what they're shooting at.

Version 1.1 updated, containing the following changes:

Selecting a unit is much easier now, "snapping" to nearest unit to where you tapped. For best results, tap slightly left and above a unit.
Fractional gold, so odd numbers of occupied rows generate a half-gold more than before.
Fractional MP, and Knights only cost 0.5 MP per empty space moved into, letting them reach battle a bit faster. They still require 1 MP to fight a Barbarian, but this makes them more competitive with Archers.
Help file is now in HTML, with illustrations to explain tricky parts.
